    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.

In the steps of YouTube Missionary Bush Pilot & Trent Palmer

In this video we replicate YouTuber Missionary Bush Pilot's flight from KPGA Page Municipal, Arizona, to backcountry Fry Canyon & Eagle City , Utah, in his new Kitfox, adding some extra sights of our own along the way. We take YouTuber Trent Palmer's "FreedomFox" Kitfox which is available in the MSFS Store. We fly across Lake Powell & along the Colorado River, across the Arizona - Utah border, with absolutely stunning scenery. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

 
Maybe you or others can answer a question I've had for a couple of weeks.
The Kitfox has been on sale a few weeks on the MSFS Marketplace and will be for about another week. I wonder if I need another bush plane [ they are my favorite type of plane ].
I have the Asobo Zlin, Aviat Husky, Cessna Bird dog, Cessna 170b and the Got Gravel planes.

What would the Kitfox offer that I don't have now?
Thanks
 
I found a three-video series from the owner, Trent Palmer, that documents the conversion from the previous normally-aspirated 100 pony Rotax to the current 915is turbo monster, along with the required digital avionics and other mods. It should give you a good idea as to what you're getting with the virtual package.

Thank you Tom, interesting films, amazing that the plane came in under 950lbs when it was finished.
I think I'll get it while it's on sale.

I was in the same situation as you. I have all those aircraft as well. I bought the really cheap Kitfox. But then someone told me I should get Trent Palmer’s one for various reasons including realistic handling, high power and extreme STOL abilities. So I got it during the sale. No regrets. Probably one of my favourites now. Cheers.
 
Thanks Frank
I don't know how i managed to leave my favorite bush plane off the list.....the PZL Wilga.
