  • 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.

Here are some in-game shots of the Ctrl/Ezy Pucara. We are currently finessing flight files and have now got the switchable loadouts to function. Hoping for a release pretty soon.

It is possible that we will add a representation of cockpit walls but that is all. We want the Ctrl/Ezy concept to remain the way we designed it. If the cockpit were to be fully populated, we would be selling the Pucara and all other Ctrl/Ezy products as conventional AH product and not at the pricing we currently have them. With our other projects and continuing contract work occupying more of our time, we see no future for us in doing that.

Now that the Ctrl/Ezy concept has been out there for a while, we can see that the market falls into two categories. Those that "get" it and those that don't. With this in mind, we are more than happy with the results so far and see no reason to change much. If that means that Ctrl/Ezy has created its own niche market, then so be it. We will leave it up to the community whether they want it or not.

The upcoming Jaguar and Javelin will more than likely represent the final ( and on-going) expression of the concept.:engel016:

Not sure why after all the rehashes of these discussions we can't get across that there's a third group of us, those who are fine with simple systems, all up front on the instrument panel, but who want to be able to look around outside while flying.

The cockpit walls would satisfy that perfectly! I've been perfectly happy flying planes like the old Alphasim F4D Skyray in VR, with nothing functional on the side panels and very primitive bitmaps. If you want to slap a photo of the side panel down, that's fine, but I'd be happy with dark grey polygons or whatever.

As a bunch of have said, we just want to be able to look around inside the cockpit, whether in VR or just looking outside while flying an approach, without seeing big holes in the plane. We're not looking for a cockpit full of systems, just one with the holes plugged up. :)

Won't satisfy the cold-and-dark guys, the rivet counters, or the hardcore systems fans, but that's what the Aeroplane Heaven version's for. :) But I'd never buy a $45 Pucara. I am the market for Ctrl-EZ, because I'd happily buy a $20 one.
