Are using AC3D's texture LSCM Unwrap? It's very powerful but you need to select non-joined areas for it to work well. If you select the whole cylinder, the algorithm doesn't know where you want the edges of the mapping. So, on a cylinder/fuselage, select then map one half at a time.

AC3D 8 has more useful texturing extras in the Tools menu on the Texture Coordinate Editor.
