    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.

MS2024...Still more trouble than it is worth...

...in my opinion. Came back and launched MSFS after about 6 months after going back to MSFS2020, and I have to say, other than a few aircraft like the HU-16, I'm still not impressed. Besides the still-atrocious flight dynamics on most aircraft, the latest item killing the joy of flight in MSFS is the cockpit cameras that have no rhyme or reason, seem to default to a crotch-level view of the instrument panel that precludes looking outside, and are difficult to configure (I'll get them figured out-- but not until I have a few hours to spend on it). Looks like I'll head back over to 2020 for another stint as Asobo continues to use those who bought as Alpha/Beta testers. I'm certain it will be wonderful...well...eventually.
 
I am currently trying it out with two (2) planes. Yes, just two. The RV-8 and the Iris PC-21. The RV-8 is my simple airplane perfect to punch holes in the clouds and fast enough for short X-country flights. The PC-21 is my real life dream airplane that I will never own or fly. But, the Iris version with the Occlus 3 VR headset and the H-3 motion platform is as close as I am going to get.

I have set up most of the controls for both aircraft and ,so far, they are doing well.

P.S. My fingers are crossed on that last statement.
