    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.

Virga Alphajet AP Anomaly

I don't know if anyone had this problem or even tried using the Autopilot function for the Alphajet. There was none for the Jet but the cfg file did allow for it's use and so I used the GTN750. About 98% of the times I tried to use it the airplane would go into an uncontrolled rocking side to side so I had to do without the AP. Trimming it to fly hands off for more than a few minutes was difficult so I spent an entire 400nm flight doing nothing but trimming, endlessly trimming, lol.

Virga was able to finally locate the culprit (a fix for my problem) in the ai.config. They mentioned adjustments in the PID's under the "StickandRudder" section. I don't have the fix yet maybe in a day or so and I'm looking forward to getting back in the cockpit, so thanks to Virga for taking the time to troubleshoot a very specific glitch that no one else had reported. Well Done!
 
Now the only thing they need to do is improve their textures. They're FS9 at best.

I feel as though the Alphajet has been considered "done" and they've moved to other projects. The fix I was told was done has yet to be passed on even though I suggested simply posting the PID changes and I could make the necessary changes. Since my previous post there has been no further replies and texture upgrades or new textures have not been discussed.

Yeah, then the least they could do is release a paintkit so that talented painters could work their magic on this model.

Anyway, this release did not inspire confidence to buy future releases by this team.

Agreed, they seem to have a "what you see is what you get" business model.
