Hi Guys, Just incase any of you haven't heard, AVSIM was recently taken down by hackers, which in effect destroyed their complete forum, and downloads databases. These guys have been running for 13 years now. Here is the BBC link. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8049780.stm AVSIM have setup a temporary forum in the meantime, until they get their site redeveloped. Hope you guys don't mind me posting this here; but i feel it is a great loss to the FS community. http://linux.myalbemarle.org/forums/index.php -James

Hi Nabeel. I was just wondering, with the coding the way it is now, how hard would it be to make it so that awards name and description is a tooltip ( Alt Text ) when you mouse over an award image instead of it appearing beside the image. I think it would simply be for asthetics of course. I'm not asking for this to be a built in feature, was just a thought I had. I was going to take a stab at it, but I decided against it. Reason: Since I am on Beta, I hate to come back and report something broke after I altered it. That is not fair to waste your time like that on something that might be my fault.Â

Is there any way to display all the awards earned on one page. Here is an example: I have a page that displays all the awards that are awarded at the airline. I'd like under each award to show what pilots earned that award. If you still don't have an idea what I'm talking about you can check out the below link. They have what I'm talking about. http://www.metroairvirtual.com/index.php?content=awardlist Thanks for the help!

Hey there, I'm trying to get a 717-200 repaint going for FS9/FSX so we can start phasing out MD-83s in service at TexAir, but I've lost touch with the painter whom used to help us as he was quite busy. It needs to be a freeware model, either the JCA or HJG model will work as long as the necessary permissions are granted (I can seek these myself or the painter can do it, just let me know). I have two ideas in mind for the 717 - the first of which is to have the exact same paint scheme that our MDs have (mostly bare metal with some small designs), and the second is a new idea pitched by our COO of a white scheme with a Texas flag overlay on the fuselage. I've dabbled with…

Hey everyone! I have been gone for ever it seems but it's only been days and I am WAY behind on the beta versions. Hell I am still on 22 and we are now up to 38 I see. I'm glad all the dam holiday stuff will be over here in a couple days and everything around my house can get back on track. Hope everyone got what they wanted/needed for Xmas and that you all have a very Happy New Year. And my resolution for this year is going to be to quit lying. Yes that's right. Every year I say I am going to do this or that and never do, so this year I am not even gonna lie about it at all. lol I am just simply not going to do anything or say anything about doing anything. ;D ;D ;D

Hi Guys, Having never really dealt with Civillian VA stuff before... not in a big way... I thought ID take the opportunity of an empty private flight server, and unlimited web resources to run a Civie VA alongside my ongoing Military Project. I was hoping the illustrious community here could advise me what in the way of ACARS programs is the best way to go? Cheers in advance.

Hey guys... recently I have been asked to make about 4 non FS related websites... Rather than start from scratch I plan on just using a CMS and skinning it. What is your favorite CMS? Pros/Cons Personally I like WordPress, but I am interested in trying new stuff. Anyone use eZ Publish?

Hi all, I've taken down the JIRA bug tracker. Too many resources on the server, not worth it. Right now, all bugs should be reported here: https://github.com/nshahzad/phpVMS/issues vaCentral bugs can go in the vaCentral forum. This should make it easier to also track what's fixed/ what's not yet. I'm trying to centralize things a bit more to github, so perhaps people can participate in the modifications a bit more. That is my hope, at least. Thanks!

For conversions... I suck at these... // Convert units from gallons to lbs if(self::$unit == 'lbs') { $result->jeta = $result->jeta / 6.4; // 6.4 pounds per gallon $result->lowlead = $result->lowlead / 6.4; } elseif(self::$unit == 'kg' || self::$unit == 'kgs') { $result->jeta = ($result->jeta / 6.4) * .45359; $result->lowlead = ($result->lowlead / 6.4) * .45359; } Basically I start with the fuel price, per gallon. Then to convert to price per lb, divide by 6.4. To KG, I convert to lbs, then multiply by .45 to get to kg. This correct, seems rig…
