    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.

Hi everyone,

Here's where I'm at on the Edgley Optica, Not to much to complete just a few bits to texture here and there.

P.s.

The Heinkel He-51 is still being worked on...... :wiggle:
 
Always liked this plane and the concept behind. Too bad it was scarred by a sad accident.

Thank you for doing this. It would be great for observation of nice scenery.
 
What can i say.I'm a sucker for odd birds.. Ive seen a lot of pics of this plane and others that i would never have dreamed anyone wouldmake for fsx. Thanks Graig.. Looking forward to flying it..

Cool, I remember Hampshire Police air support using one Serial G-BMPF many moons ago, out of HMS Deadalus at Lee-on-Solent before getting their Islander.
 
Beautiful work as always Craig. This is one of those birds, that you stand back and wonder. . . .what were they thinking? lol

How frustrating must that be... to seat in a copter that cannot even takeoff vertically... :icon_lol:
Fantastic exterior model, as always.
This ambiant occlusion effect integrated in these textures is really neat. :ernae:
 
So, this morning i woke up from something in my dreams. The house was cold and i was wet from sweat from head to toe.. I blame it on the pizza last night.. So anyway, i get up and get on the computer and open soh up and theres a message waiting for me.. Dear Pam, would you please take a look at the flight model? Craig.. hey,do cows give milk?? Oh hell yeah.. Si I downloaded it and started my usual testing.. a tweak here,a tweak there, all small stuff really and mostly me being nit picky.. That was 5AM.. I just stopped flying it for a moment not six minutes ago. This thing is incredible fun.. Cruising speed 70 knots, max speed 126 knots, stall speed somewhere around 35 knots. It turns on a dime in the air and on the ground, and as long as you watch your speed,its one of the easiest birds to fly ive ever seen. Its a true delight and I'm really honored to be a part of it..

Is it just me or did he almost land in the undershoot?

Oddly enough I do fly out of the airfield in the video, Thruxton fact fans, and I've seen that Optica knocking around from time to time. My weapon of choice is the R-44 briefly seen towards the end of the film though.
