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.
Milviz F-100D is out

There are all kinds of options, take your pick:
- Quick start cheat, fire the thing up with one simple switch click
- Manual start procedure using the GPU
- Manual start procedure using the cartridge starter
Even the manual procedures are not complicated, I find this easier to fire up than the F-86. This is the GPU start from C&D (manual page 17):
a) If the GPU is not already running, select ' Attach/Disconnect GPU' from the Menu Bar under Add-ons > F100-D.
b) Battery switch - ON
c) Engine Master switch - ON
d) Wait for engine RPM to exceed 12%
e) Start Button - PRESS momentarily
f) Throttle - IDLE (if throttle is OFF, use a right mouse click on the Throttle to advance it to the IDLE position)

You can also have it ready to taxi. Will auto start upon entering the sim for you. No buttons to click at all.this can be saved state in the MVAMS (new acm).
Just dont forget about NWS and be careful on windy weather

Made 2nd flight. No problems.
Did encounter an issue with my virus protection program. I run McAfee (yeah, I know) and it quarantined one file - Milviz_lightning_service.exe. Had to restore it and "exclude" it from future scans. Hopefully, its not altered in anyway but if so I'll do a reinstall.

Absolutely LOVE the airplane. Two very minor "nits" I hope will be fixed with an update:
- Priority #1: The refueling probe does not appear to be "toggleable" from the configuration application (no probe = foreign variants...Danish, French, etc.) Was told this would be implemented.
- Lower priority: No nuclear weapon loadout (MK-28 or Mk-43/57/61) for those of us wanting to simulate VICTOR ALERT in Europe.
Other than that, this is a FANTASTIC airplane, and it flies like a dream.

I'm really blown away by the F-100. This plane runs extremely well on my system, far better than the F-86 or F-4...with no stutters or FR issues whatsoever. Great job by the Milviz team!
It handles like a '50s American car - heavy and a bit sluggish at first, but cruises like the blazes once she's moving. Unlike the F-4, I don't need to re-read the manual before each flight to remember how to align the INS! It's just simple VOR/TACAN and ADF nav for the Super Sabre.

Yup.. keep it simple
Wondering where to fly to today, I remembered I had SDB's Upper Heyford installed so headed there. No glamorous 'in flight' shots.. the Super Sabre is pretty wherever she is. Sat for a while trying all the menu options while the airfield got on with it's daily business..
This old lady pushes me closer to getting Tacpack!!

Great model. No FPS issues, good handling and looks superb. Well done Milviz.
Only issue I've come across so far is the LAU-32/A launcher will only display on the left-hand outer pylon and not the right-hand one. This is in P3dv3 (no TacPack). Anybody else seeing that?
Waiting on my Milviz forum access to be updated then I'll report it over there, if it's not been done already.
