Over the last few weeks I have had a number of requests for the file area and video gallery to be fixed. I will attempt to do this over the next few days. Tonight I will do a total backup of the site so it may run a little slow. I must do this before I tare into the heart of our board... Keeps your eyes on this space for updates....

xxNew WANTED ITEMS section

New section added in the Forum list.

Wanted items

The idea is to briefly list what items you are looking for, wether it is an avionics panel, double decker knobs, fire handles, specific gauges, sheepskin cover, etc ,etc, so that those of us who have time and inclination to trawl Ebay daily can send you a Private mail to alert you personally instead of advertising the item to the world on the Forum.


Of course we all have some extra parts, and that section  should also help
finding a new home for those dusty parts. But the main goal is to alert each other when a wanted part is available on EBay.

This post remains open for comments or suggestions.
Please start listing your needs in the wanted section

I had the opportunity to test this new generation CDU coupled with the Sim Avionics software and the whole package is more than impressive.
I have the previous version of this CDU which I like (..liked !?) very much but  I must say that this one is a big step ahead.
VGA LCD , razor sharp image, super wide angle of view and high resolution .
All metal bezel and new keys make it closer than ever to the real stuff, and the new VGA screen is the real plus. The unit is self contained in a neat package and can be used as a desktop
device or integrated in a CDU bay using Dzus rails. Plug and Play at its best.
Actually the best feature is that its price remains the same as the previous version even if this unit is far more advanced.
 List of main  features  from FDS:

-  VGA LCD (800x600 Resolution!)
-  All Metal Construction (Bezel and Structural Components)
-  Dual Use Design (Drop in DZUS Rail Compliant and/or Desktop)
-  New Dimpled Injection Moulded Keys   
-  PnP with Sim-Avionics, Project Magenta. Open Source Interface for Simple Integration with other   CDU Software (SDK Required)
-  Dimmable Key Brightness
-  Dimmable LCD Display Brightness
-  Super Realistic Tactile Feel Keys (With Audible Click)
-  Includes Power Supply (VGA and USB Cables required)
-  Lead Time: 2-3 Weeks (Effective July 1 + Orders)
-  $995.95CAD

xxFlightsim.com Review - REX2 for FSX

REX,  or Real Environment Xtreme is the most complex product Kevin Glover has ever  reviewed.  Leading up to its release in December of last   year, the  product's site was frequently crashing due to the large   amount of  simmers who were refreshing their browsers every few seconds   waiting  for the release.  REX generated more enthusiasm than any   product ever seen, and in some places it generated a lot of   enmity, too.  Kevin was happy to be writing this review nearly a year   after the release of the  product (although REX 2.0 was only released a   few months ago) because  there are many resources to draw from; besides,  the passion which this  product evoked in some people has dimmed a bit   with time, which is  good.  Candidness is difficult to achieve when  fanatics are opposed to  it.
