In the section we will describe the step by step procedure for creating a new aircraft from scratch.
To do this, we need to define the following items in N-OC:
Example:
Item | Description | Short code | Dependant prerequisite |
| Aircraft | AC | |
| Turbo Prop | TP | |
| British Aerospace Jetstream 32 | | |
| J32-1 | J32-1 | |
| Standard J32 | J32 | |
| Y19 | Y19 | |
| Light (L), Medium (M), Heavy (H) | L,M,H | None |
