    Well the last few days have been sort of up and down. Friday night I was flying with a friend on VATSIM and FS just went away! Machine was still running and all else appeared to be fine. So next day I started poking around and poof!!! Out went the drive. Well Saturday afternoon my brother came over so we could run a new power service to the sim. Can't have the power going out at 32,000! So I ran a new 60amp service to my sim, rebuilt the FS drive and all seems to be back on track! Now for another test flight and back to building!!

    Thumbs up

    Well another small setback this past week. The software I was using to talk between FSUIPC and my EPIC went goodbye. No more development. So after some serious thought and much tinkering, I decided to go back to EPICInfo as the go between. It took me 4 days to reprogram my Epic and fix all the code. But now I am back up and flying and further ahead then I was. I have more complete with the EPIC now. There are a few things brewing with the sim that I will report back here with soon! So keep an eye open. Now to get the FO's Efis panel in and working!

    Hey BOB!

    I got an idea, Maybe you should save that Epic File in a backup location!

    LOL

    Hi Trevor. Well I do keep multiple backups. But this is a total redo with new hardware hooked to the EPIC so I was starting from scratch. I did keep a backup of the files I changed this time so if I want at a later date I can go back and play. I had a massive crash a few years ago and I learned muliple backups of all my EPIC files!

    The worst thing happened to me, I backed up a peice of software and then needed my backup, I checked my backup cd, all that was there was a shortcut.

    I also learned a valuable lesson.

    Hi Bob, I often wonder looking at your avatar, which one is you? !!! Re: glareshield, I will be making mine as soon as all the CPFlight gear arrives in a couple of weeks and I already have a few sketches drawn. I plan to use 6mm MDF sheet and coat it in a thin adhesive vinyl.
