    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.

Luft'42

We've no release date as yet, but as you can see it's at an advanced stage. You'll get versions from A1 to A4, so the package will be quite extensive!
 
Lot's of versions with great detail, and some never-before-seen features to boot. It will be worth the wait, and the price!:applause:
 
Just bumping along.....Eagerly awaiting it's arrival !! My favorite Luftwaffe prop fighter of WWII. Thanks for all the work being done. With all the combat flight sims i have CFS3 still ranks as one my favorites because of modders like you all. Regards,Scott
 
It's a dynamic reticle, so TrackIR is the ideal solution, but for those who don't have one, a view that centers the reticle in the gunsight is available.
 
The Luftwaffe should have put forth more resources to the production of the Fw-190 and ended production of the Bf-109 as soon as possible.Good for us for their mistake as the Fw-190 was better in every way compared to the Bf-109. The Fw-190 series were the best single engine fighter the Luftwaffe had and one of the best overall prop fighters of WWII. Also had the firepower to match anything out there at the time.
 
In general it was better than the 109 in most areas, but the 109 had it beat in high altitude performance, which was critical against the bomber offensive. This wasn't truly rectified until the Fw 190D in 1944, but I agree, it's one of the finest aircraft in the sky and stayed competive with the opposition throughout its career. Better than can be said of the 109, which had a slump or two in its career.
 
You are correct Gecko. The Fw-190D had the higher altitude performance needed and came a little too late to make a big difference. A fearsome fighter none the less. At lower altitudes the Fw-190a series (when flown by experienced pilots) were always a danger to the Allies.
