    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.

Sim Skunk Works FRF-104 released

Really liking that Spanish bird :applause:

Am I right in thinking that there are no external stores options aside from the tanks?
Knew that was to be the case with the Marketplace/SM release but assumed that other vendors would be releasing armed options as was the case with the G91?

There are no external stores except the tip tanks and wing pylon tanks. As stated in the User's Manual:

"Weapon system not implemented to completely accomplish to Microsoft Flight Simulator policy that does not allow weapons"

This for the Simmarket F-104G, but I assume the versions from other vendors are the same. That said, this is a beautifully done
plane that I find a lot of fun to fly.

I held off for the single seat version. I’m sad to see that even the non-marketplace version won’t have weapons. But the Starfighter is such a beautiful bird even clean that I can’t resist her.
 
I'm not convinced there aren't weapons hiding in there. All those "easter egg" entries on the fuel and weight section... Might just be a case of having to figure out the proper weights to put in each entry.

Autopilot

Hi members,

using the latest version of MSFS & FRF-104G (bought via SIMMARKET) I have an issue with the autopilot. In cold & dark mode the AP master switch is in OFF position. Using the kneeboard EPU toggle the AP master switch automatically switches to ENGAGE. But even after full startup with navigation alignment the annunciator panel shows "AUTOPILOT DISCONNECT". Also I cannot move the AP master switch manually. Did a new installation of the aircraft, but this did not solve the problem. Any suggestions for me please? Something overseen in the manual? Or am I just too stupid to handle this beauty? :biggrin-new:

greetings Marc
