    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.

B314 the Clipper incoming to MSFS

Is Accu-sim even going to be a thing in MSFS? I mean, isn't the point of MSFS that it's modeling or will model those core things that accusim was created to model in FSX/P3D that were not available? So I don't understand how it would be any more accurate than just using the core sim? Is it just marketing? MSFS is still really early in dev, and I imagine that it's only going to add MORE features. So these super complex addons that don't know what the sim is going to be capable of in the future, seem to be stuck between a rock and hard place. Feels like there's new blood on the scene and they're taking full advantage and or the simpler complexity devs are doing the same...and good on them! While the big ships, are much harder to turn, having a status quo to meet. Maybe that's all too generalized...I don't know. Interesting times these are!
 
I think you are quite right there, Rick.

It has also been really interesting to hear how Asobo/Microsoft continues to work closely with developer companies, such as PMDG and Carenado, to implement new, core-sim items that those dev companies ask for and then they just become elements of the sim.

Don, with regard to seeing a Beech 18 in MSFS, Carenado of course produced the best flight sim example to-date for FSX/P3D. They have said that they are working on bringing every one of their FSX/P3D aircraft over to MSFS, so I have been crossing my fingers that they get to the Beech 18 sooner rather than later.

Same here, John. That one they made was a D-18. I'd like to see the later version with the taller cabin and new wing. Much nicer corporate and cargo plane. I have their 18 in FSX and still fly it when I need my dose of Beech 18!! The Aztec is the other one I am waiting on as a sooner-rather-than-later plane. I am glad to see this Clipper, and the Connie looks promising as well. Keep those radials flyin'!!
