Don't know if anyone is interested but Rick Piper has released a very nice looking Chipmunk, available freeware from AVSIM.

Not managed to download it yet - Mum picked up the phone mid-download - but I'm intent on getting it.
It looks superb.

If anyone knows of a good Embraer/Shorts Tucano T.1 (preferably with a decent VC) wave your hands and post here please :wink:.

Even if the receiver is picked up while I'm connected, normally the connection isn't interrupted.
It ocassionally happens though, and invariably when I'm downloading something big, the 50Mb plus Tu-154B package for example.

I used to use GetRight.
Found a lot of the servers I ended up using didn't support resumable downloads though.

I use DAP and that seems to be OK most of the time with ISP's but then again I have B/Band which may make a difference to them accepting it.

Only problem I have is with trainsim.com which tells me I've used all my doawnloads when in fact I've used and completed just one so I have to use the "save as" method.
