    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.

Saw this on YT and decided to have a look. When she said "2020" I got a big smile on my face! It's complex enough to have fun with the start sequence, it has modern avionics available, and best of all, no FMC!

 
*cough cough* It's been released!

 
Well shoot... That video was only two days old as of yesterday, so I figured it would be a few more days to release... I'll edit the title and stick it. Then I'm going to go get it!
 
Initial impressions...

I thought I followed the checklists, but the engines refused to start. I had to use the EFB autostart.
The modern AP has an INOP flag, but it still works.
I'm going to see about going into the liveries and getting rid of the tail numbers so I can use my own.
I don't know why, but even though I'm pretty sure every engine instrument was in the green, my left engine shut down about 10 minutes in. I just shut the sim down at that point because I have laundry to take care of...
