  • 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.

While we finish up the FDE on our MSFS native Kinner Sportwing. Work has begun on our native version of our PT-17. We hope to have it out in a few months or less.

I agree with Tom, she looks stunning.
The more Bi-Planes the better IMO.

BTW how's the FM coming along ?
I'm really hoping she won't be such a handful on the ground as the Carenado WACO is.

Very early yet. Our FDE team is putting the finishing touches on the Kinner and so has not really started refining them. My expectations are that the Stearman will display the same FM performance as it does in P3D.

Ok, Mr.Spad, Sir, no offense but a glamorous photo of a real Stearman like that is of course highly appreciated by us biplanes aficionados but please stick to screenies of your PT-17 model only as that is what we're all looking out for, Ok ? Thank you !

Surely you jest, Sir. Did you not appreciate the HUD in the shot? 🤣
 
Seriously, the only way I knew the second shot wasn't a photo was the dev mode caption up high and the strange grass. The plane itself is stunning!

Thanks. This is no 'port over, as some might assume, but a full native MSFS milspec version of our Stearman using Asobo compatible code and materials.

That was clearly photoshopped in to fool us, wasn't it...

Btw, in fact i was talking about the air2air shot of the yellow Navy Stearman, not the cockpit covered USArmy PT-17..

(yeah, sure just kidding, Spad. Totally amazing work ! Congrats ! :applause: ( and fantastic screenshot too ! :encouragement: ))

Cheers,
Jan

Thanks. This a true team effort and credit for the work needs to go to OzWookie who has joined the team to help facilitate the initiative to bring GAS models to the new sim. He has a real passion for round motors and vintage aircraft and it shows.
