    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.

My Current Favorite

I'm a fickle Simmer so my "Favorite Aircraft" seldom remains my favorite for very long. Right now it's this little gem:

The Sequoia Falco F.8L
Original Model by Chris Lampard
Last revisions by Massimo Tacolli

I have upped the resolution on both the exterior and interior. VC is almost completely redone aside from a few small areas that aren't noticeable anyway. The sound was aliased to the Cessna 172. I changed that to something I had.
The livery shown is registered in Australia, was built in 1992 and has a Lycoming IO 360 engine. I am using it in FSX, although it is not a native FSX model everything seems to function just fine. I will attempt to stick it in P3D_V4 for testing, but I expect it will fail, lol.

Just a quick note. . . .Yes it failed the P3D_Test. Actually as soon as I selected it to load. . . .the Sim locked up, lol. . .back to FSX!

That's a shame - lovely work. Oddly enough the Falco didn't lock up (4.2) when I tried but it was completely invisible!

It is a shame. I guess it's a good thing I don't know how to convert models to native FSX. If I did, as little actual flying as I do now. . .I wouldn't be doing any, lol.
