    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.

F-106 Delta Dart v2

Doesn't seem to still be there...

When I open up the website it only loads down to the DH 125. Has the F-106 been removed?

I got into a bit of a mess with my website, being able to upload files only intermittently, not all my fault I hasten to add.
The server is being taken over and there has been a lot of disruption.
The F 106 has been taken down and will re-appear when I have found all the relevant files, I know they were put somewhere safe!
Takes a lot of work to set up for one aircraft model and I'm working on other things at the moment.

Hi Rob, given the level of effort you are engaged in, perhaps it would be easier to upload to SOH?
 
If you have your own website it's always better to only distribute from there. That way you have control over updates and such.

Any tweaks for P3D v4.2 compatibility?

I absolutely love this plane -- one of my favorite planes in real life and (thanks to Rob!) in Flight Sims as well.

I've shifted to P3D v4.2 for most of my flying, and since this plane depends on the FSX FA18.dll for some functionality, the F-106 is missing some stuff in P3D.

Has anyone substituted other P3D v4.2-compatible files for the FA18.dll stuff? Or Rob, any chance you'll revisit this and tweak it for P3D? It's such a fantastic plane, I'd love to see it fully in the new sim.

Thanks, all!
 
I found a decent substitute and simple HUD that works
Am away on business till next week and will try to remember to follow up
agree this model is terrific
 
Give this a try:

FSX Realistic HUD For The F/A-18 Hornet. A realistic head-up display (HUD) for the FSX Acceleration F/A-18 Hornet. The HUD is an enhanced version of the original HUD for the F/A-18 by Scott Printz. The original functionality Scott built into it is preserved, and the following new features are added: 1) Precise ILS and TACAN navigation for aircraft carriers (including moving carriers) that allow carrier landings in low visibility and at night. 2) The HUD symbology is conformal to the outside world: the horizon bar stays on the horizon, velocity vector shows actual flight path as read against the outside world (if you keep your vector pointed at a certain spot on the runway, this is exactly where you will land). 3) Caged mode with ghost vector for use in heavy side wind conditions. 4) Elements repositioned to make the HUD look as close as possible to the real Hornet HUD.
