    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 we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Over in the P3D v4 forum there is a thread by jeansy regarding a developer I'd never heard of before called FlyFreeStd. I checked out their products on simmarket and found a nice, inexpensive, Halberstadt D2:



 
Their early Mig-29 looks really nice, but there doesn't seem to be any reviews anywhere. I'm sooo... tempted. :a1089:
 
I believe it's "Fly Free" as in "Fly Anywhere/thing You Like" rather than "Fly Without Cost"... ;)

For some reason, I remember looking at something of theirs ages ago, when I was news editing at simFlight, and not being overly impressed. I cannot for the life of me remember what it was, though, and can find no trace of my discussing it with anyone. It certainly wasn't anything that they're offering for sale now. If I had the finances to do so, there are a few things there that I'd be interested in looking at, too.

I tried the Bartel Collection in P3D4 and they worked quite well, nice looking aircraft. They leap off the runway pretty quickly (maybe too quickly), but they were easy to fly. Only the fact that I seam to have a lot aircraft from that era already in my collection will prevent me from adding it to the permanent collection.
