    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

It needs a VC- I'd been using my alpha Tiger- it's set up for that- just move over the interior model and textures, though the texture cfg is aliased to the Tiger that may not work for you. It's been scratching my Cougar itch, and I like the old, simple models. I can run lots of boats with no frame hit on my hand carved wooden, coal-fired computatorizer...

I like that we get both grey/white and glossy sea blue. I'm a fan of the blue myself but after it went away the grey over white planes (not just Cougars) wore the most colorful schemes! (And it wasn't just limited to CAG birds, they were ALL painted that way!) Kinda like the natural metal USAF jets of the 50's. Lotsa color! I was just at the site and the home page didn't list the Cougar as "WIP" anymore but it's not on the downloads page. Maybe it's close to release!

Nice avatar Ian! The VC-10's tail is very organic looking from that vantage point, like a whales flukes!

Thanks for the tip! Have been watching the page for the last couple of days. Got it and thanks to Rob Richardson for this lovely beastie:applause: :encouragement:

Oh, well, it was worth the try! Won't work without Accel. Was able to fly the F-106 a few times about 2 years ago. I do know the Homepage says Acceleration only but sometimes it works.

I went there this morning and it wasn't in the Jet Downloads section. All I saw was the AI aircraft and paint kit downloads on the main page. Is the AI also a flyable aircraft in this release? (This was about two hours ago and I'm at work now so if there was a problem and it got fixed I can't see it.)

A bit odd I suppose, but you have to click the image below the first pic of the Cougar. Let your cursor move over the image and you'll see. Just click and the download will start.
