February 18, 200323 yr I recently discovered that I had (accidentally) deleted my archived FU files when I was cleaning up my drive. I've replaced most of my cherished FU files, but I'm I can't locate Mike Magatagan's FU2 approach plate and airport docs, on Avsim or elsewhere. Does anyone know where they can be found? TIA,-hoo
February 18, 200323 yr Is this what you are looking for?http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Lau...d/2545/fss.htmlIan
February 18, 200323 yr I've now managed to find copies of the approach plates and airport diagrams at flightsim.com.Filenames are: fu2app3.zip and fu2air18.zipLet me know if you can't find them there. I can then either e-mail them to you or put them up on a temp server somewhere. Total file size for both is around 4MB.Ian
February 18, 200323 yr Hi Ian,Could they be uploaded here at Avsim? I had always wanted the Fu2 airports.doc by Matagan, but had got into Flight Unlimited to late to be able to download them. I've got the Fu3Airports.doc though.Thanks, Jim B.
February 18, 200323 yr I could upload them, assuming it wouldn't cause any problems?Anyone know how to contact the original author?Ian
February 18, 200323 yr Ian, I don't know if this is true or some perverted hoax, but I heard that Mike Magatagan has passed away some time ago... Anyway, no-one has been able to contact him anymore. So I think you could upload the files...Cristian
February 18, 200323 yr OK. I'll set about uploading them.IanEdit: Files now uploaded. Hopefully they'll appear in the library soon.
February 19, 200323 yr Thanx for the info. I did locate the files on FLightSim.com. I hadn't been there in quite a long time because I'd always had difficulty logging on to the site...seems much better now.Unfortunately, Mike has passed away some time ago. I originally got the files from a "memorial" site; but it is no more. I think they should be part of the Avsim FU3 library though, if that is ok with everyone.On a side note, I took the Bizjet for a run between Seattle and SanFran regions for the first time. However, I forgot to check my fuel (shame) as I usually tool around a region on about 1/3 tank for most 'craft.Well, to make a short story shorter, I skidded in about 1 mile short of rwy 02 at Sacramento Exec. Oh well, I guess I'll be washing planes for a while until I can pay for the damage...-hoo
February 19, 200323 yr Thank you very much for the uploads. I found the other sight difficult to log in and to navigate in as well. I think Avsim is the best user-friendly sight around. Pages load swiftly, are well laid out, pleasing to look at, full of almost anything imaginable I would want to spend time with and browse, whether it be the forums, their interviews, reviews, and all you folks. Very-very nice here, very en-riching. My "discovery" of Avsim and this forum is what got me to get back into Fu3; subsequent posts made me realise I've been missing 2/3 of flight unlimited fun. That being Fu2 and Fu for 95. I've got them now and each one on their own merits are loads of fun.You all take care,Jim B.
