  • 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.

    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.

Brilliant...managed to resist purchasing for less than a minute...Dean's best yet :)
Interestingly, couldn't see it on the marketplace...
 
Very nice aircraft, if anyone is wondering how to control the nozzles, the increase/decrease propeller pitch lever is what you'll have to be mapped to (apologies if this is already known!)

but where's my pilot?

I had this as well. Set all your pilot avatars to default and restart MSFS
and the pilot will be there.

I had the same issue with the Darkstar.
 
Great aircraft as always, but just one small fault:

The british Harrier GR7/9 have no flare pods in front of the fin. At those versions, this looks a little strange to me....
 
Sorry you're having such an issue with this Jankees.

I did have to restart MSFS in order for this to work, but I'm sure that you tried that already.

There must be an underlying cause, I just can't imagine what it is.

As for the livery, I'll never turn down an offer of your work! :encouragement:

Another suggestion, near and dear to my heart, would be a VMA-211 livery, specifically that of 211's CO, LtCol Chris "Otis" Raible USMC who, along with Sgt Bradley Atwell USMC, was killed defending the squadron's jets from a Taliban attack on Camp Bastion, Afghanistan.

This last one is Otis' jet, with his name on the side.

I was one of his flight instructors in Kingsville. He was a Hell of a Marine.
 
Love the 203 hero paint!

Can’t remember the artist, but that tail came from the new improved insignia 203 got in the ‘90s.

A huge improvement from the “Chicken with a Seatbelt” patch from when I was a stud there!
