    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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Noriega P180 vs Wilco P180?

Can anyone chime in to which version of the P180 is more realistic? I realize that I'm comparing the Avanti and Avanti II here, but I still would like some input. Perhaps there's a real world Avanti pilot on here who can comment?
 
From what I've seen, definitely the Wilco version. I never bought it because one of my friends did and he advised me that it wasn't worth the money unless you buy it on sale. My advice, save your money and wait for the Milviz version which probably isn't too far off. You can be assured that model will be very well researched and made as realistic as possible.
 
Apparently Wilco butchered the sound on it. But I sure do love that PL-21. I Know one of the Milviz guys is on this forum. Maybe they could give us a tentative release date? Or at least some new screenshots
 
The Noriega p180 is pretty nice, and on his version 3 p180, the engines can and will fail if you overheat them for too long. But on the other hand, the fuel flow seems a bit optimistic, especially when climbing
