Morning All, thanks for the add.  I use the cheap dongle device feeding into flight-aware, then sharing to ADS-b exchange.  Im wanting some help with planebase.  I use VRS and use PL3 to update my sqb file.  My question is i get a lot of military aircraft, especially the C146 that come up as civilian, can i change them in PL3?  or anywhere else, Thanks. in advance.

So you want to change aircraft listed as 'civil' to 'military'?
VRS itself has a function for that, it's described at http://www.virtualradarserver.co.uk/FlightRoutes.aspx under CodeBlock Overrides.
In short, you need to create a TXT file in the VRS folder (the link says how to find it) and fill it with the country, ICAO hex codes and whether it's civilian or military, eventually supplied with comments, so you know what aircraft has which code. See screenshot below for an example from my own file.
