    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.

MSFS Twin Otter Doors

Hi All,

Having taken the great leap forward, and purchased MSFS, I am finding a few things that I am having trouble locating. My personal fetish is doors. I have purchased almost all of my new aircraft through the MSFS Marketplace, and find many of the downloads include an EFB which allows you to open and close the relevant doors and hatches. On the Twin Otter, I have found a way to open the Co-Pilot's door only. I believe that the other doors and hatches have some form of control, switch, or click spot in the interior of the aircraft, but I have been unable to find same. Any ideas thanks.
 
Thank you Sir,

Try the door handels from the inside - were you would open the doors normally.
. I,ve been able to open the Co-Pilots door by using the Q key for looking at the door and then zooming away so I can see the door handle, but at this point unable to get a view of the other door handles- I'll keep experimenting
 
Press keyboard Ctrl+F8, this moves your viewpoint to the rear of the cabin. Pan left and down to view the rear door handle and click on it. Press F to return to panel view.
 
Still at It.

Thanks again to all,

Tried the above-shows the top of the door and airstairs, but won't pan further left or down. I'll keep fiddling, and if all else fails, I'll refer to the Oracle-my 13 year old grandson!!-though I'll then have to listen to his rather scathing comments about senior citizens etc. Ho-hum!!!

Thanks again!!!
