    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.

Grumman A-6 Intruder - by Deimos Inc Released on Marketplace 6/28

Rather than model the Intruder with actual bomb racks (TERs), Deimos simply mounts the bomb loads on drop tanks. Otherwise, it would look like this:

It's bring your kids to work day! :p

I could probably live with that, but the bombs on tanks/no MER - that's so disappointing. That said, if there's any way Deimos would consider either an EA-6A or ideally, EA-6B, I'd be over the moon.

Thanks for the heads up!
 
I think there are kids in the cockpit, right? I am joking.

However, I recognize in D. the growth in the quality of the 3D meshes and textures (always improvable obviously).

Will the next steps be “systems and flight model”?
 
It’s not as good as I hoped unfortunately. It’s impossible to know what has been selected in the cockpit. The square buttons don’t rotate when you select them like they do in the F14 for example. You don’t know if you are in GPS mode or nav mode,tacan doesn’t seem to work. The indexer lights illuminate on a lamps test but don’t work during the approach. There’s no indication the autopilot is selected or if the alt hold or heading hold are ‘on’.
Hopefully future updates will correct these shortcomings but right now for me it falls short.
Anyone else notice these issues ?
 
I'd recommend posting observations to their Discord support (or email if you don't want to contact them via Discord) as they are responsive. Update #1 coming in a couple days. https://discord.com/channels/911947975515840572/1204012875581235290
Yes they are responsive but they will already know the issues I have mentioned as they made the aircraft and have been making aircraft for MSFS for some years now. That being said improvements may happen soon, hope so.
 
Does anyone know what the update was on this aircraft ? Started msfs last nite and checked updates and updated it (I think ) but it didn’t say what the update was ? Anyone have any idea ?
