    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.

New planes FSX

Thanks for the heads-up! As I only had time to have a quick look at the Yak-1, I can't say much about the other models. But the Yak-1 is a very nice model ! The package comes with 2 different models, the Yak-1 and Yak-1b (with a bubble top) and 4 different liveries.

Thanks again,
Huub

These are not Ctrl-E starters, but the starting procedure is simple, logical and very well described in the included .pdf.

As expected the Sturmovik is a heavy flyer. I needed a lot of runway to take off. But like the Yak-1 also an exellent model. The package contains both the single seater and the version with the rear gunner. And there are enough liveries to play with.

You might want to fly it with an open canopy as the armoured plates makes flying this beauty a bit of a claustrofobic experience.

I went ahead and downloaded everything he offered- all of the Yakovlevs, the Sturmovik, and his Airacomet, and I can tell you all that they are all very well done! Actually, the only aircraft that I couldn't start with Control-E was the Airacomet, but Huub is correct as as far as starting from the panel, as it is pretty easy and well explained. Thank you Rob Koval, wherever you are!
 
Hello everybody,
I agree, all the planes are absolutely beautiful !!
But I ' ve an issue with the engine: low or full throttle the sound doesn' t change (I' m speaking about the Yaks).
Does anyone have a solution?

Cheers lume
 
I'm downloading the Yak-9 and will take a look at the sound file. Does your speed increase when the throttle increases?

I played thew sounds from the sound folder. I heard no difference between hi and low RPM with pitch or no pitch. I would
use a sound file from a known good fighter aircraft!

Hi MrZippy,

the speed increases but the sound remains the same.
I' ve tried with a working sound but no luck.

Charlie,
They seem to be in the preverbial cone of silence.
Nothing at all from them.
I can't even begin to imagine what's taking so long!?!?
