    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.

Rob's Shorts 360 now released!

Been keeping a very close eye on this one and it looks like it's almost finished. That being said, I can't wait to add another of Rob's wonderful aircraft to my hangar! I do wonder if he'll take on the 330 next. One can dream, right?
 
Is it for FSX or P3D???

I believe Rob stated elsewhere that he is no longer making aircraft for FSX.
Correct, only P3D and actually only the V4.+ P3D versions. I have V2.5 still and it didn't show. I asked Rob about it and he said he was using the V4.5 SDK.

It seems to be a must have! Rob Richardson say on his web site he is working with Blender and, at a expense of managing 2 modeldef.xml, a FSX version would be possible to make with the Blender Toolkit. But, maybe, some serious advantages of P3DV4 are used. Moreover, it is a painful constraint to manage two versions. Choose to focus on P3DV4 is very understandable.

I think he is also making the twin tail cargo version as well, based on earlier shots he had there. We'll see. It's definitely getting placed in my hanger.
 
A few shots from P3D_V4.4

I had asked him about a Paint Kit and this afternoon I had an e-mail with two files attached. . .one was the paint kit and the other. . . . . . . .A model compiled for FSX!!![/FONT]

I didn't think I had seen any 330 shots on his website, but to be certain I asked about it and he said if anyone saw a 330 it wasn't on his site. . . and that he had no plans to do one at this time. I'm waiting on one more final model to test and then I believe he plans to release it.:jump:

He originally had the blueprints up there before the model and it showed both versions, so I just assumed he was making both models. My bad. ;)
 
About an hour ago I sent Rob the OK on his final model. . .so be watching his web site for the release.
 
Downloading Now!:wavey::applause: Crash tests to commence!

UPDATE: It flies! and even better if you remember to raise the gear!

Falcon, you seem to have Rob's ear. Can you ask if it is possible to update his Basset VC to current standards. Pretty please :encouragement:
