    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.

Flight Replicas P-40N Bendix Navigation System

Okay. I give up. Where is it?? :dizzy:

I've restored and have been flying my FR P-40N all week. Just love it.

In going through the manual, page 16 has an image and outline of the Bendix Navigation System which allows the pilot to use ADF frequencies. Problem is that I cannot find which model uses the system, or if there is a hidden key somewhere that displays the system as shown in the screenshot.

I'd like to use it, but how??
 
You'll have to choose among the three that have the directional finding (df) loop antenna installed on the exterior, as that tells you outwardly which ones have it - those being listed as "P-40N Nav", "P-40N China CACW" and "P-40N Burma Banshees". The Bedix radio compass navigational system was only really used on aircraft operating in the China-Burma-India Theatre during WWII, hence the reason that system is only installed on those variants (though I know with the P-39, examples sent to Russia also had a similar radio setup installed).
