    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 small problem with computer generated parked aircraft at airports

I've recently installed sim update 15 and I've only seen default aircraft parked on the ground at airports. Usually I can see computer generated examples of aircraft that have been downloaded (examples: FlyingIron Spitfire and Hellcat) as well, but I haven't seen any today even though I have use generic aircraft models turned off. Is there a way to fix this? The reason why I'm asking this is because I enjoy seeing other Spitfires and Hellcats on the ground when I'm flying one myself.
 
I can't find anything like that over at the official forum, so you might want to try asking there. The crew running that board have much deeper knowledge of the inner workings of the sim.
 
Update: I have seen Spitfires and some non generic light aircraft (Pitts Special, Carbon Cub, Savage Cub, etc.) at a few, but not all airports today. Hopefully this will be fixed properly in a future update and I will be able see non generic aircraft at all airports again.
