    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.

Miles Magister for MSFS2020?

Just finished re-reading "The Last Enemy" by Richard Hillary. An excellent must read!

He repeatedly makes reference the the Miles Magister as THE training aircraft used by would be Spitfire pilots.
I enjoy the Flying Iron MxIX Spitfire, but it made me think we should have a Magister as an introduction and trainer for would be fighter pilots.
What do you think??

(I can't find a FS9 version which could be converted to MSFS2020...)
 
Better get started then, Ken. Coincidently you can't get a better choice of aircraft to start with FS aircraft development. :)
Also we could ask Anthony to dismantle the top wing of his marvelous Tiggie. Then we'd have it magically turned into more or less a Magister. Yes, will be difficult to find an older Magister model that can be MSFS converted. You *did* try this one, did you ? : http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?linkid=29640&catid=205

I'd love an all singing and dancing Miles Magister for MSFS, sure ! Then again i've learned to fly the Spit by learning to fly the Tiggie, hehe.. So i'd appreciate it just because "i made a plastic model of it half a century ago" nostalgia. :)

Good luck on your Magister quest, Ken ! You never know what might turn up when you ask..
