>Any chance you would be willing to share the plans for the>design / dimensions of the shell/cockpit? >>Thanks>Kevin>>http://s3.photobucket.com/albums/y81/kconl...sim/UAL1930.jpgI'd be happy to. Only I didn't have too much in the way of plans, just tons of sketches made along the way. I did put a few on my webpage already (only usb connection and wiring so far - on the "cockpit plans" page). I'm trying to sort out the mess of paper I have, and I will put on my page any and all that might be of help.http://simpit.christrup.net/

WHY ARE ALL MY PICTURES GONE ??????Jytte

Due to server space I beleive most pics in a post have a limited shelf life of a week or two. I don't think AVSIM could possibly afford to keep every picture ever posted forever -- it is a free service after all.

OK, that's makes sense. I was afraid I'd done something I shouldn't have. But that's a rather short shelf life, not much fun looking through older posts then.But I was also referring to my signature picture, I used to have one, and now I don't. I also don't see where to put one anymore???? I see other people still have them.Jytte

Well, I saw your pics and your set up was awesome!About your sig picture, check the forum rules - I know there's a size limit, for one thing. Not sure what happened. You can also write to a forum moderator, if you wish.

Your signature line is managed through the "user menu". Go up here to your very first, original post. Above that, click on where you see the link to "Top". Then, at the top of THAT page click, on "User Menu", and then on the left of that page, click on "Edit Your Profile".
