I have good news and bad news - the bad news is I think I have solved my own problem anyhow, in the short term at least:

The good news is that a Junior Member (at that time anyhow) called donallbaugh from Bay City, MI posted one workaround which is dated 31st August 2007. The post suggests that an objects folder is created in the same folder as your .ACF / aircraft folder. What was then suggested was all misc files, including texture files, go into that misc folder. The final step is supposed to be :- open your aircraft from within Plane - Maker and select the .OBJ file you have created and use the Misc Objects Screen to fine tune where you want your object to be.

I have not tried this so I cannot say if it works. What I am sure of is that Ben S is a very busy person who still has to earn a living regardless of what else 'has' to be done.
