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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.

Finished the fuel system. It's more in line with the behaviour exhibited on similar aircraft now.
Also revised the starter logic since in-flight starts didn't really work for me.
As a gag, the APU now requires and consumes fuel.
And thinking about implementing an aircraft manager for fuel, payload and panel load/save.
I've also talked to Mario about the mods. He's going to look at them and maybe implement them into a possible update. Good riddance!
Funny you mention that, as I've just asked Mario about one today.
According to him, there's a paintkit, but he's is on holidays for now and can't dig it out. He's going to send it over or upload it once he gets back.
A prime candidate for a what-if livery is Eastern, since they were interested but were committed to the DC-9-50 instead.
Or how about all the regional carriers from back when. PSA, Hughes, Southwest, maybe even Frontier. Or virtually any west-central european carrier for the other side of the pond. Lufthansa, SAS, Swissair, Austrian. Japan might also work.

Sorry to bring this back but since last December there has been an update that addresses many things discussed here. It's surely a permanent dweller of my hangar now.
