  • 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.

Introducing the English Electric....

Developer
Wren ! no its not the Lightning ;)

Powered by a 3hp motorcycle engine and weighing only 232lb (105kg) this is very slow, max speed of 50mph and she glides beautifully once at an altitude and engine turned off. The current version has a 8hp engine upgrade to make it more flyable but it will probably include the 3hp version just for giggles, anyway here are some pics all still WIP.

Package will include

Custom engine sounds from the real aircraft
Custom dirt/grime decals
Six paints (Two fictional, but in keeping with the era)
Three different rudder configurations
Hidden GPS and Radio stack
Three launch methods (Tow, winch, and standard take-off) winch and tow were never an option but it has been bungeed.
Fully VR compatible
Animated clipboard with "pilots notes"
Full PBR textures
Engine vibration
Accurate interior modelling (Access to the real plane, Shuttleworth Collection)
100 Years old !
