Cycling Views in Downloaded aircraft

Hi All,
I'm slowly learning the basics of downloading aircraft but I have
several questions. One of which is occasionaly I will get an aircraft and
install it with no problem; it shows up in the list of available aircraft
and loads properly. The cockpit view shows the panel and guages correctly
but when I cycle through the views nothing else appears except the outside
terrain- no cabin in the rear view or wings in the side views. The virtual
cockpit does not exist, either.
Am I not configuring something correctly, or is this more likely the way
the aircraft were designed? Is the a way I can tell if the aircraft will
have all views 'before' I download it, and if so how?
I realise the views probably will not affect the flyability of the
aircraft but it does detract from the immersion factor and the overall
completeness of the aircraft.
Thanks,
Timmy

You can add your own side views by changing things in the panel.cfg (no time
to go over it prop'ly), but unless you can get a .gmax (or whatever) version
of the model, add it, then recomplie it: you're not getting a VC. MelJet's
777 V2 is excellent, tho' best with AC2002, so that you can explore the
cabin! Oh, and AFV\PM2's Concorde deserves a mention as well (it even
includes a virtual bathroom, flush, toilet sink taps, et all!

That's because they didn't include a virtual cockpit in the downloaded
files. Only some top notch 3rd party providers are skilled enough to
do good virtual cockpits.
