    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • 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.

This has to be the best update there has been for any add-on. Flies like a dream.

Just updated and flew it myself, they've made a mess of the ground handling again but otherwise not bad... vast improvement in regards to holding trim.
Seems to have a weird hybrid of NWS and differential braking, will have a look at the FM tomorrow night tonight.

I have a question

View attachment 161416

... concerning when there is a passenger up front.

With the default characters you can only choose pest or cholera as a developer. When using the stock IK-animations the pilot's extremities will snap to the correct positions (hands to stick and throttle, feet to pedals) but the copilot will go totally mad.
If you don't use said IK animations you're stuck with the default pose which can result in what you see in your screenshot.
Not a problem for your standard GA aircraft but quite annoying with narrowly spaced tandem seat aircraft.

Haha - certainly would be for the passenger!
Thank you for that, I assume Bill's model is accurate - it certainly is beautifully made - so it must be a very snug fit indeed.

The Klemm accommodation by contrast, is positively palatial.
