    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.

EA-18G Growler Released 5/24

SOH-CM-2026
From Facebook

I am tired of waiting for Asobo to get SU15 finished, so here is a download for the EA-18G Growler
https://drive.google.com/.../1_qTFohnDvTsuh85ZBjJ.../view...
IMPORTANT: This aircraft was developed to work with SU15, which is still not released. Some features such as visual effects may not work right in multiplayer until SU15 launches. The weapons loadout has been fixed with the most common loadout (tanks and pods) for now and will be updated in the future.
Key Features:
- The canopy can be opened on the ground with Taxi lights
- The boarding ladder appears down when the canopy is open and engines are shut down
- Formation/slime lights can be toggled with Recognition lights
- The aerial refueling probe can be extended with Wing lights
- A paint kit is included to help with creation of new liveries
The cockpit is the single seat F-18E cockpit using Asobo gauges. Weapons still appear on the wings but the paint scheme will not match and there is no back seat. A proper two-place cockpit may be added in the future if someone wants to model it.
The flight model is custom and should provide generic fighter-like performance without targeting any specific real world numbers. The engines and fuel system are not necessarily accurate either.
The tailhook is functional but it only appears to work with some of the available carriers. Hopefully someone can assist with getting it fully functional for all carrier packs.
Thank you to Whisky_Tango_Foxtrot and Groom Lake Simulations for their help with the texture files.
If you make a livery for the aircraft, please send me a message! I would be happy to incorporate it into future versions of this pack.

Noddy, where is this from on Facebook? IE: Who is the author? Your post doesn't credit them, and the author didn't include their name in the readme file.

If you can go to the original post, you can click "share" and "copy link" to get a direct link to the post.

Thanks for sharing this! Just want to be able to go thank the author.
