    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 bought this a while ago but I don't try to fly it much. Mostly because of the checklist flows. (Give me the default TBM any day) Anyway, I must be missing something because I've only once gotten the engine display to work right.

Maybe I just should have bought the Carenado bird instead. I could start the FSX Carenado PC-12 in my sleep from cold and dark. But the SWS bird drives me up a wall. And I know how to start a REAL King Air C-90. (And get a gpu and get the power on just shy of engine/APU start in a Challenger 601, Citation Encore and Excel...)
 
Hi, Do you have the mod panel installed, just in case? The panel mods will allow you to make the SWS PC-12 compatible with 3rd party GPS and tablets.
 
Just downloaded the mod to get the PMS50 in the panel since I have the freeware version and use it all the time. As for the engine display issue, I was forgetting putting the ECS in auto....
