Hi Ben
As I understand it the 146 was being developed for general release in FS.X
JM is now doing an FS.9 version which will be hosted by HJG
HJG is still an FS.9 site.

Hi Garry, thats where the confussion comes as some post I've seen on other forums indicate that HJG will host both models.

Hi Ben
I am pretty sure it is FS.9 on HJG and Jon wil host the FS.X from his own site.
The FS.9 being a special for HJG to host as he has moved over.....in theory to FS.X which is why the 9 version alone will not be on his site.
I Don't recall anything about HJG hosting the X and have only seen info to the effect that is is the 9 version only from there.

HJG will ONLY be hosting the FS9 model.. how very dare you suggest I would give space to FSX

I didn't think of it from that angle Ben
The answer was more obvious than I thought

I'm looking forward to this one as well, but if they use the version of Matthias Lieberecht's panel that's currently on FlightSim, I'll either have to change it out or find another plane. There's just too much to do before you can fly. I don't have time to digest a 160 page manual just to fly from here to the beach!

That's one reason I don't use it Tom.. the only reason I suppose. Wish he'd do a 'lite' version for those of us who prefer to hit the gas and go :-(

I am of the same stable I do like to get in an fly.... Ok I will approach Matthias once its running if he can do a lite version...but he may baulk at chopping his work down, you know how the designers are about their babies :roll: ONLY JOKING

Cheers Tony ;-) The worst that can happen is we get a hail of abuse and a few expletives
The other side of the coin is.. would he prefer 'we'.. the great unwashed.. don't use his panel at all :think: We have a HUGE fleet of mostly unused 146's on the VA which remain unused (and it has to be said.. unloved) for a number of reasons. They make good money for the VA and pilots, the route structure is quite stunning and yet no one flies them. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out why. This isn't solely because of the complexity of ML's panel but that is a constituent part.
Fingers crossed and 'La La' headphones on!
