    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 new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2020 - Aircraft

Description: The de Havilland DH.104 Dove is a British short-haul airliner developed and manufactured by de Havilland. The design, which was a monoplane successor to the pre-war Dragon Rapidebiplane, came about from the Brabazon Committee report which, amongst other aircraft types, called for a British-designed short-haul feeder for airlines.
Over 500 aircraft were manufactured between 1946 and 1967.
The aircraft folder contains a "readme", which it might be an idea to have a look at.

Hi Rob,

This is an absolutely fabulous addition to MSFS! Many thanks for your hard work :encouragement:

I was wondering, would it be possible to either:


  • Have a paint kit released please?
  • Publish an update with one aircraft having a pure white finish (to aid repainters) please?

Many thanks

Andy
 
Awesome! Grabbed it today. Out here in Hawai'i, the Hawaiian Air Tour Service (HATS) flew a few Doves (and Herons). Very cool addition to my fleet.

Dove not showing up

Hi,
I installed the Dove in my Community-folder : deHavilland DH104 Dove, inside: Contentinfo, Simobjects, layout.json and manifest.json. However, it is not showing up in the Aircraftselection-window. What could be wrong?Piet de Geus

Beautyful plane, but VSI wrong

Hi everyone,

Wonderful Dove ! THANKS ROB !!
However, the VSI indicator is wrong.
Below is what you want and what you need :

For +500 ft/min you need to aim for +100 ft/min in the VSI (not 500)
For +700 ft/min you need to aim for +150 ft/min ...
For +1000 you need to aim for +225 ... ...
For -1000 you need to aim for -275 ... ...
For -700 you need to aim for -200 ... ...
For -500 you need to aim for -150 ... ...

Just my 2 cents to help the Dove becoming even better...:encouragement:

Alex
