    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.

I was going to ask, any suggestions?

Was interested in a crop duster and wondered if anyone had both the C-188B AgTruck or PA-36 Pawnee Brave and might suggest a preference. Or if you only have one do you recommend it. Was also interested in the PA31 Chieftain 350. Any thoughts, pro or con?

Hi Frank. I have the PA36 and for low / slow tooling around the ORBX country side (like Sedona or Bonners Ferry) it's a fine aircraft. (In one of the default views, however, I have a missing / transparent texture. It is the view looking back at the pilot.) The PA36 is a simple stick and rudder heavy duty tail dragger and great for playing around those undeveloped air strips. Looking at the price I would conclude that it is worth the $12! Likely the only difference from the C188 is that there are no wing struts in your sight line.
 
I have the C-188B AgTruck and it is a quality addon. Great for low and slow flying to check out scenery or for a low and slow tour. Also good for spraying crops :untroubled:

Cheers,

I have the Alabeo Chieftain and the Carenado Navajo. Neither one gets the fuel system correct, both feed from outboard tanks first, no matter where you set the controls and the fuel gauges register total fuel, not fuel in each tank. The Chietain leaves me scratching my head when it comes to the 3D model and the avionics. A much upgraded and modernized pilot's panel, the inclusion of the resource sucking Avidyne, but the passenger section is set up like a commuter aircraft, even the model that has winglets, but is not a full Panther upgrade. It just strikes me as a weird combination.

I saw similar comments in a video review. At least about the cabin layout. Reviewer felt it would have been better with a more executive layout for four or six rather than packed seating.
