#1: "Phu Bai Redux": Hue/Phu Bai, Vietnam '69-71 sent to uploads Author: JG300-Ascout, Location: CyberspacePosted: Thu Aug 10, 2006 11:09 pm ---- It's done. Just sent to uploads at the only places I intend to send it....Com-Central and Hovercontrol. (I don't wanna' see it anywhere else, neither!)
Admins, please check that the upload proceeded normally. I have no experience with 'PAD' files and didn't use it...just uploaded from my comp. (it's also in the JG300 garage on the FTP server).
I attached one pic that can be downsized for a thumbnail. Advise if anything else is needed (I included a description).
Many thanks to Al Simms, Stoopy, Fled, Fr8ycat, Wingy, Bushy and a bunch of others in the credits for all their help in making this happen. Of course, it's right on the sunset of FS9, so fingers crossed that it'll be compatible with the next generation. If it needs anything, I'll do it to make it so.
Have fun, I know I've enjoyed flying it (for the last three years!).

I think FS9 will be around for a good long while yet anyways. I'll be a-fetchin' this!!!

Obviously lots of relocation went on and the new revetments are incredibly noticeable, what an improvement (not that the old ones were bad). Just a ton of work shows.
Congratulations, bud. This has been a very long personal project for you (much longer than the trails you read here, folks!) and the readme goes a long way in explaining what it really means. Job very well done, this day's been a long time coming!
Congrats again and THANK YOU!

The new startup positions are EXCELLENT.
Had a great time flying around tonight. Very enjoyable, and a neat experience to hover-taxi to a revetment, line up and set it down, and shut down with everyone lined up.

Say, what are those dashed lines I see running down the tarmac in your overflight? I certainly don't see those and they're too narrow to be remnants of the old runway.

REALLY!

BTW, great job everyone. I noticed a big improvment on frames with this release and in some cases a 100% increase...
