  • 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.

Question on the Mil Mi-24 Hind

What are those six rectangles just below the HUD?

Seen in many pictures.

Lights?

Noticed also that FS9/FSX MDLs don't use/model them as well.

As far as I am aware, when the gunsight is in a computer-assisted targeting mode of some sort (I don't have a lot of details), these rectangles are advisory lights that light up when the computer calculates that your flight attitude is within appropriate parameters to launch your ordinance and hit the target. (They may also indicate what ordinance is selected but I can't confirm) FSX/P3D and Arma Hinds don't seem to model this, but I saw this featured in an Enemy Engaged: Comanche vs Hokum (EECH) Hind mod.
 
upper part, just below the hud.
