    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.

No VC, but a detailed 2D with various dropdown panels.
There is a "vibrator" switch, without which, you will not get off the ground...

Parachute effect included, you can drop stuff all day

Beautifully made model, definite premonition of the big fat A380.
 
I never did like the panel that came with it, so I dropped in the VNCon20 panel. The RPM are a little off (working from memory here), but otherwise it's a nice combination.
 
BTW, those clamshell doors are only for use on the ground. There's a jump door on the aft left that I believe is operated by the tailhook command.
 
Yes the jump door is functional.
I was just cruising along, dropping my parachutes, when I thought:
"Wow, What a great big box you could drop if you opened up the back!"
So I did, and took the screens.
Now that I've been outed, I can see that there may be a little trim problem, even if they did stay attached...:d
 
Thanks, I found the passenger version, the 'Deux ponts', on a disc but couldn't track down the Sahara anymore. Did look at Flightsim.com but somehow missed it.
 
Pretty cool find!

That is one wild looking double decker fuselage.

Nice looking model.

Thanks for the heads up Wing-Z.

Is there some clever person out there who could add some landing/taxi lights to this aircraft. I believe the existing lighting is in the model but i am sure someone could update the lighting on this great aircraft?

Regards Paul Day.
 
Here's the original passenger version, the model 763 'Deux ponts' :

I'd agree with that ;)
Now as I was over-rotating the Fat One to drag it off the runway under close to max load, I had a thought:
Rooted as it was in 1940's thinking, I'd bet it started out life as a taildragger!
So, just a little touch-up fun:

Look at the forward wing - CG hovering around mid-chord.
I'd bet further it was only when a freighter was mooted, that it plopped over on its nose to allow rear entry.
The CG issue would explain why those clamshell doors extend so far forward, effectively losing the rear half for cargo.
 
Hi all
Anyone have this 'beauty' to share?
Apparently only at Flightsim.com :redfire:
That is the 'Sahara'.. I did find the 763 version.
