    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.

Airshow Assistant updated for FS2024 -- no more CTD issue

SOH-CM-2023
Airshow Assistant got a couple of major updates, and now includes scanning for both modular FS2024 aircraft and traditional FS2020/2024 aircraft. Though there's a warning about possible CTDs on the legacy aircraft scan, I haven't had any with the released update.

It's not perfect; the modular scan is almost instant but scanning a legacy plane can take forever, and it shows all the planes in your cache even if you don't have them activated/currently in your Community folder. And in my limited test it didn't show the DC Designs F-16 or Milviz F-86 liveries.

But it's a zillion times more usable than before, and the livery list is more up to date. (For legacy planes, the dev actually has to add all the liveries to a list! Under FS2024 the sim can actually show the modular planes/liveries available.

Biggest issues is that the vast majority of planes don't show pilots when flying as wingmen. Not great when you like open cockpit/bubble canopy planes.

Thanks for the info !
I have bought AirShow Assistant back in MSFS2020 just for the aerial refuelling thing, and I confess have not really tried the wingman feature yet :D
Honestly I wish they implemented a multiplayer support for the refuelling, that would be really awesome.
