    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.

A question for Spad54 and GAS

First off I love the Kinner. Despite the criticisms elsewhere I think it looks great and is a perfect match as are any vintage GA's for MSFS.

I'm also enjoying porting over some of your older models, for personal use only of course. And have recently purchased and ported the Travel Air's and Great Lakes. and they too fit perfectly into the MSFS world, especially in VR.

I'm tempted to get some more but don't want to get anything that your going to officially bring over.
So not wanting to put you on the spot instead of asking what's coming and when can I ask what in the GAS back catalog is definitely not coming to MSFS so I can get it if it takes my fancy :)
 
I'd love to see any GAS planes, classic or new, and I'm really hoping to see the Fleet Finch on MSFS. LOVE it under P3D V5 and I have a family history with it: My great uncle was a Wellington pilot in Egypt for the RCAF during WW2, and he'd written back to the family that the Fleet Finch was his favorite plane to fly. So I was ecstatic to find the GAS version for FSX/P3D.

Alas, I tried to port it over using the porting tool, and like every portover, it had too many quirks (engine wouldn't start, shiny surface, etc.). I would love to pay for a true MSFS version if it ever happens!
 
I'm also hopeful for many of my personal favorite Golden Age Simulations reproductions. The MSFS world is a perfect playground for low, slow, round engined classic sport aircraft and training planes.

Paul mentioned some news to the group a few days ago but no details. Best we wait and see, let the Boss tell the story. I do know that the Stearman project is still on for MSFS but I'm not certain beyond that.

I hope like you that the whole darn GAS catalog is brought forward.
