    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.

MF Update (Category: FSX > Military)

This is an update for FSX of the Mig-21 MF by Ivan Jurcaga. I have updated the flight dynamics, given it a 2D panel, and added nav lights. There is a VC, but you need to read Russian or possibly Czech to know what all is on it. You need the original aircraft for this update to work.

I saw this one too.

IMO the Mig flies fine as is.

For the interested, I have created a cockpit and startup guide.I suspect that the "update" mentioned here is from someone with no knowledge of the plane. From my research, it flies accurately, and beyond that, why would lights need to be "added" to the model when they are already included? It's just a matter of knowing the correct systems to turn them on.
 
This is a great little jet to buzz around in, and a nice contrast to the Milviz T-38. Lots of character. The only obvious issue is the really aggressive speed brake - it's like throwing out a battleship anchor at low speed, lol.

Thank you Sean :salute::salute::salute:, fantastic job !

cheers, Henk.

PS: Just used it, works perfect ! Just 1 minor, non life threatening issue: In the cockpit familiarization picture of the left console, the dragchute release/reload button label is in the wrong place, it should point at the white button just after the flaps switches.

Thanks for running through it. I'm glad that it helps!
Figured as much when I was labeling the image for the chute release. Second guessed myself!

The white button on the fwd part of the throttle quadrant is for jettisoning of the JATO (SPRD) bottles.
 
Fantastic work!
