    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.

I understand but on the SBX you have the option to make several heights in the same file, if you wish

Right, as does ADE. When you draw the flatten poly you can set it to allow adjustments to each node of the poly if necessary. I assume that's what you're referring to?

Great pic Sidler. I was just telling someone that I had the Bushawk as well and honestly liked the detailing and how it flew but with Trackir I had a choice of either adjusting the eyepoint so I could see over the cowling and not be able to see out the left window. . .or adjust it down to see out the window and have no fwd vision at all. Finally uninstalled it.

I agree, it flies great in FSX as well, but I'm used to being able to look to the left and visually see the flaps extension or at least the wing. You can't do that with the Bushawk because the airplane is designed with the pilot sitting higher than the top edge of the window so you have to bend down low enough to see out the window if you want to look back to the left. Basically take a Cub, a Pacer, any high wing airplane and you can easily look left and see the wing. The Bushawk isn't that way and for me it takes a real getting used to to enjoy an otherwise beautiful Bush Plane.

My CT206H Stationair from Carenado is like you described above. A truly stunning aircraft otherwise.
I have mine set up to see comfortably out the front, and only about 40 or so feet through the left hand side window - the top bar of the side window is essentially at eye level.
As real as it gets, I guess. :uncomfortableness:
