    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.

Sales For Anything FSX

I also wished to express my sincere thanks for ALL Iris aircraft that were made available to be shared with all of us. At first I thought it was a misprint or that I somehow misunderstood. Imagine my surprise to find it was true! And every aircraft is an excellent representation too IMHO. Again thank you very much DLB. Take care and be safe.

AF Hornets are FS9 products, just for clarification.

By the way...The Aerosoft - "Catalina Island" is only a DEMO version.
 
Yes, the Aerosoft Catalina scenery is "demo" product for Aerosoft's larger "U.S. Cities X - Los Angeles" scenery but it's a complete package for the island. I think the marketing approach was to give you a taste of their L.A. package using Catalina as the example. Having done about 75 trips over to the "Airport in the Sky" when I was flying the LA basin during the 1970s and 1980s, I find KAVX and the scenery around the entire island to be a faithful reproduction.

I would note, however, that the Aerosoft add-on has no VASI on RWY22 (unlike the real deal) and the approach path to this particular airport really benefits from having an approach aid to rely on. I am not a power user of the Scruffy Duck ADE utility, so I never had any luck adding the VASI. Nevertheless, even without the VASI it's great scenery (even if Wrigley's DC-3 isn't parked in the hanger).

I got an email that PC Aviator is having a Memorial Day sale this weekend, as I imagine many others are.

Also somebody pointed out that Flight 1 is running a 30% off sale on the Islander in that thread...

Just stopped by again. I think the reason Aerosoft didn't put a VASI on Rwy 22 is because there isn't one. There is what is known as a PVASI or Pulsating Visual Approach Slope Indicator. It is set for a 3-degree glideslope and the single light rapidly flashes white if high, slow white flash if on glideslope, slow red flash if slightly low and rapid red flash if too low. I don't think there is one in FS, at least I haven't encountered one. But some sort of VASi there would have been nice. Otherwise it's a great free addition.

I stand corrected. There is one at the default Catalina in P3Dv4. Not sure about FSX though.

I am not aware of a PVASI in FSX, I think such a thing would require custom coding.

Not exactly : steady white on glideslope and steady red if slightly low.
