    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.

GKS F-111 update

I sure hope they fixe the landing gear animation, weight off wheels hang/extension is way off.
 
With the update in place, and not withstanding the undercarriage droop, what's the overall impression of this F-111 ? It certainly looks very nice - a perfect airfield companion for the JF Vulcan.

Are those bombs right? Shouldn't the pylons swivel with wing sweep?
Click to expand...

According to the flight manual, the outboard pylons do not swivel. They are in a steamlined position when the wings are at 26 degrees sweep. If outboard pylons are carried, the pilot has to engage the wing sweep handle fixed stores lockout control which prevents the wings to be swept back beyond 26 degrees.
