  • 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.

Tubeliners I wish we had in MSFS...

Mine are all vintage (I've excluded aircraft already listed as being "in development")....here they are in order:

- Fokker F-27
- Lockheed L-188
- Boeing 727-100
- Douglas C-54/DC-4
- Convair CV-240

That's my list...what is yours?

DH Trident
Boeing 707
DH Comet
BAC 1-11
 
Not really a tube guy, but I'd pay for decent versions of these, in order of preference:

VC-10
BAC 1-11
TriStar
B707, including military variants.
 
In no specific order:

A340-600
VC-10
Bristol Britannia
Avro Lancastrian (not tube, but definitely liner)
Boeing 727-200 plus freighter
 
I too, am not into airliners. However, I will enjoy looking at the repaints you guys post.
 
I'd love to see a pre-FMS 727, but I'm pretty sure at this point that it would still be "study level" and take 20-30 minutes of initializing this and synchronizing that to the point where I'd lose interest halfway through the process. I don't mind having to fire up an APU before getting the big hair dryers going, but beyond that, I want to spend what precious-little time I have actually flying.

Replace the F-27 with the 707 and you would pretty much have a list that I might make. The first airliner I ever flew on was a National Airlines L-188 and would enjoy having one to fly in the sim. The Convair C-121 & C-54 were two that I used to see as regular visitors when we were stationed at Patrick AFB, so those are a nostalgia thing.
