    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.

Wanted s-55/whirlwind static model

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a static scenery model I could use t populate the flight line of the old RNAS Portland Ian and I made a while back a quick search on flightsim.com revealed nothing and avsim will not display on my antiquated laptop any more. Any help appreciated as always

Many Thanks

Hooky
 
Not that i know of Hooky, i know the Alpha/Virt S-55 converts using SAMM, i try'd it myself a while back, but although i got good frame rate's, i had a problem with the pilot hanging half out the fuselage, I guessing that could be solve'd using the updated SAMM or MDLconX so i think thats your only option. Good luck :encouragement:
 
I don't know if this helps here but one way to make a "static" aircraft/helicopter is to use some AI airplane (or any plane if not too heavy for fps) and make a flight plan where the plane stays on the same stand most of the time. Naming the "atc_parking_codes=MyHc" (for example) in helicopter's aircraft.cfg and the stand with the same name MyHc (for example using ADE) the helicopter stays at the same parking spot all the time.

I don't know any other Hc as the Alpha/Virtavia s-55 for FSX either.
 
Hi H,
Whirly-birds are go!

Done you a couple of bglx's, one open with crew and one closed without crew, based on the AS S55.

PM me with your email.

Cheers
