    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Milviz recommendations

Browncoat

SOH-CM-2023
With the milviz Sumer Sale going on, which aircraft would you recommend? I have been eyeing their new P-38, the F-100, and the Cessna 310.
 
Hey Browncoat, my personal favorite of the Milviz products I have is the F-100D. It's easiest on frames, least quirky to fly (aside from the real aircraft's quirkieness!), the external model is a great looking aircraft and there are many 3rd party repaints for it.
 
I just got the B55 recently and that seems like a really well simulated aircraft and is easy on the frames. I also love the F-86 and the F-15. I can't say any of their aircraft are not worth getting, so probably just go for the aircraft you are most interested in in real life.

Cheers,
 
I would recommend the F100, F86 & the F4J&S. Of the three the F100 is a pure delight to fly the F4 the most complex. All are well worth the sale price
 
F-4, F-100, T-38, MD530, Bell 407, C310R, P-38L, UH-1.... I like them all

Like a someone swimming in the pool of money so recommend everything :very_drunk:

not as one like me, I have to be very calculative :frown-new:

Being a beta tester has its bonuses with Colin and Kat looking after their staff

The F100 is the newest package out of all of them so it will have more features than the other two

However the F100 and P38 have more paints

Yes, I'm endorsing the f100 as a tester. Having flown everything, and they're allooking good, the F100D is so satisfying to fly.
 
It would be self-serving to recommend the F100 so let me offer the F-4 is a great choice. Great depth of systems (the INS/air computer implementation is a work of art IMHO) and the FDE is impressive. The ability to do carrier work is a bonus too!

(Disclosure: involved in coding of F100 and testing of the F-4, so ya, some bias here! :a1310:)
 
Speaking of the F-4 - out of general interest - can the adverse yaw quirk of the hard wing models be simulated within the confines of MSFS?

I've read "Sierra Hotel" recently and the mention that a good part of F-4 accidents and combat losses were caused by adverse yaw was intriguing.

And just to pull MV's leg a bit: Is there 556 mod and working TISEO? :biggrin-new:


P.S:
If I had to choose between payware thin-piped 737s, I'd pick Milviz'.
