    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.

Icing effects

Icing affects HUD display. The combiner glass is inside the canopy and shouldn't be affected. Haven't seen any comment on this.
I am sure enjoying this model a bunch.

Yeah, MSFS does that with all HUDs at the moment - rain does it too. I'm guessing Asobo will figure out a way round that in the future. The F-16 doesn't actually have combiner glass in the way - I only modeled the edge of the combiner, for greater clarity, so it's the projected display that actually gets scrambled by the windshield effects.

Great paints @jankees @Zsolt! :)
 
After lurking and looking (between TF-104 flights), I finally pulled the trigger this morning. First off, I believe this a decent value for the money-- at least from my perspective. Secondly, it's a blast to fly. The ONLY issue I see currently is the shadowing issue on the canopy at certain times of the day and in certain attitudes. Glad I went with the F-16...looking forward to refinements and improvements as they appear. Oh yes...and glad the F-16I Sufa is modeled.
