Is the missing aircraft.cfg a feature of the DRM protection in premium versions of the SIM, or its there but you can't see it ? I've only the standard version.

I doubt it. I've just checked my install (deluxe steam version), and all aircraft have an aircraft.cfg except the following:
     Baron G58
     C152 Aerobat
     C172sp-classic
     DA40-TDI
     DV-20
     Longitude
     Pipistrel
     Savage Shock Ultra
     SR-22

I've now read that the premium aircraft actually do have the aircraft.cfg (and other) files DRM protected and stored in "cgf.fsarchive".  I assume that they are extracted at runtime in some manner, but effectively reading or changing aircraft.cfg for these aircraft is outside our control.

Ah, ok. Thanks for letting us know.
