To all hands:

We have disabled the download for the FSX version of these files, for now. We noticed a pretty big server load increase when these files are being downloaded, to the point that it almost took the site down. We don't think it's the file size that is the problem, although they are pretty large. We think it's more related to the popularity of this awesome package! We are working on a solution. I will turn the downloads for these files back on in the morning (US central time). We do thank you for your patience!
 
While i did not pay the ferryman i still got my copy ! WOOOHAAA!!! Icing on the cake !! ( while i understand this happens to be the cake itself !) :biggrin-new:

Not surprised server busy, I've just d/l both FSX & FS9 versions (being greedy) & with a d/l speed hovering about the 400KB/s I was online for about 45 mins! Anyway thanks for solving the problem.

Dear Nigel,

thank you and your team once again for this superb collection of Avro 621 Trainer and Tutor models. It truly is an amazing work of art, very dear to my heart.

THANK YOU, SIR !!!

Cheers, :ernaehrung004:

The works of a true artist in modeling, textures, sounds, and flight model. These packages have it all; all one could possibly ask for in gifts to the community. Superb artistic expression at its finest. Thank you Nigel :applause:

Nigel and team,

The server loads continue to be an issue for the Avro Tutor downloads. As a test, I used the ClickTeam software to create auto-installers for the FSX port over and FS9 packages. These are a self-extracting .exe file that does the following.

FSX port-over Part 1: 242.30MB down to 113MB.
FSX port-over Part 2: 238.77MB down to 92.5MB.

FS 2004 Part 1: 205.31MB down to 110MB.
FS 2004 Part 2: 219.22MB down to 85.3MB.

Would you like to test them to possibly replace the originals?

Oh man, Jan!!!
