    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.

Thank you Cees for the kind remarks.
Love the Admirals barge Peter.

I might have noticed one other minor bug, not a biggie. Initially the wings don't seem to want to fold using the key commands. Strangely though if I manually flip the switch in cockpit to fold them then use the key command to unfold them the commands will start operating normally.

Flew her out last night, sounds and effects are great.
 
Having fun repainting this one!


The proportions are not right yet, but.....

Rob, would it be possible with a folded wing static sea hawk model to be used with the majestic class carrier? Should work for both dutch and indian carrier wings.
 
804NAS FGA.Mk6.. 171 being the mount of Eric 'Winkle' Brown...

Cheers Cees:encouragement:

A quickie for you.. check the black 'climb lines' on the fuse of your paint mate. Museum repaints (and the flying Ace of Diamonds) have the aft black line to the canopy edge. 'In service' paints for both Royal and Dutch Navy's with this scheme tend to show the aft black line stopping at the upper fuse grey. One thing I've noticed.. don't base a paint on plastic kits as these have black lines both sides!!:biggrin-new:

Great paints Dave! I totally agree, both museum aircraft and decals/drawings from model sets/books are terrible reference sources. The only source which always works are in service pictures and film.
 
Wasn't there a Karel Doorman carrier for fs9,I wonder if it could be made to work with AI carriers? I remember it had an automated crew assisted cat launch.BTW wonderful aircraft you made Rob,thankyou.:very_drunk:
 
Is it possible to remove the 330 knot overspeed warning for this great model? I have tried changing the aircraft.cfg (max_indicated_speed and max_mach) but this had no effect. Cheers.

To hide all the pesky red info messages (slew, parking brake, pause etc.) just add the line HideInfoText=1 to the [Main] section of the fsx.cfg. To hide just the overspeed warning you can change InfoOverspeedEnable=True to InfoOverspeedEnable=False in the [Display] section. Personally I have them all turned off.
 
Here's another I've been toying with.. F.2 WF254:121 of 807NAS FAA circa 1954..

The main map is DXT5 but I've included a map with mips for P3D users. Simply rename Seahawk 1.dds to something memorable (or bin it!) then rename Seahawk 1WF254M.dds to Seahawk 1.dds if you're a P3D mip person:encouragement:
