Setting Airline for GA aircraft

Is there a way to set an airline code for GA aircraft, without setting the callsign? The CSL for some aircraft (Diamond DA-62 for example) uses the airline code to set the livery others will see. But I still want to use a standard GA callsign.

I actually just asked this in the XSB forum and was about to post a cross-referenced link here. My understanding was that Pilot Clients only used Callsign and Aircraft Type to make a determination on how to represent you, but if there actually is a Pilot Client (XSB or otherwise) looking at the "Airline" and "Livery" field information, that would be interesting to know.

 

EDIT:

Seems like the bulk of the discussion is now occurring in the Swift forum. Apologies for the cross-post -- but as the question is really getting at how the different pilot clients send and receive model and livery data, I felt it was pertinent to all of them.

 

I'll look for further responses at the post linked below. Thanks again.
