    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.

Fsx native Super Hornet

Got a question... are there any freeware fa-18e super hornets that are fsx native? I am wondering if there is an alternative to the VRS Superbug.
 
The FSX Blue Angels Hornet is, IMO, a superior plane. And it's FREEWARE! Not to mention FSX Native. After all, it's the same design team that created the Acceleration F-18 in the first place.
The FCS, systems modeling, and FDE are actually as close to real world systems as you can get. The TP stuff works...decently. It's getting improved.
It may not be a "Super" Hornet, but it's pretty super in my eyes.
Stick to the v18.3. The later versions available are, so far, Beta Test planes, not final releases. Make sure you download the correct sim version's plane. FSX/P3Dv3 and below, or P3Dv4 and up.

Have fun!

I am a jump in and fly type of pc pilot. This plane isn't that type of fsx addon. I couldn't even activate the avionics... everything is too complicated about this addon.

I am still waiting for the fsx native, jump in and fly, super hornet.
 
I would like someone to make a fsx native f/a-18e./f and ea -18g based on the fs kbt models.
Pardon me for being blunt... but I was thinking out loud.
 
Interesting.

It is billed as a deep study sim product - I'd have thought that would come as no surprise to anyone considering it. That said, the YTube videos I've seen don't make the startup and basic operations too onerous.

How did you find performance? Or I guess if you couldn't get the MFDs going, maybe a moot question.

thanks,

Ah ok, you should have stated from the start of the topic that you were not looking for a realistic addon.
The FS-KBT SuperHornet works in FSX, as far as I understood.
It's simple, CTRL+E and you can fly.
You can find it here, for example: https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/23768/fsx-fa-18e-super-hornet-updated/
There are no FSX native SuperHornet, so that one is your only option.

Concerning the VRS SuperHornet, if I'm not mistaken, the Aircraft Configuration Management (ACM) program, which can be found in the start menu of Windows, will let you configure the realism level of the plane, and I believe it can also be loaded ready to fly (cold&dark startup is actually an option that can only be activated after one hour of flight time...). If you disable enough options, you should have an easy plane to use.
Now that you bought it, it would be quite dumb not to use it. It's one of the finest addons for FSX that you've got in your hangar.
