Hi All,

In the meantime I know why my new panel was not released on Avsim. Since yesterday I'm in contact with Rick Case, the library manager of Avsim. He told me that they do not upload the file because of the missing mailaddress in a *.txt file. Together with the reason why, I wrote him (and c.c. Tom Allensworth) this morning that I DO NOT include my mailaddress into a file since about five or six years and that I'm not going to change this. I also asked him to remove my other panels then from Avsim because they also did not have a mailaddress in it. This would then be consistent.

As written in the other thread, I've uploaded the panel now to Flightsim.com. When they decide not to releasae it because of the same reason, it's definitely the end of releasing my freeware after the days of FS95 where I've started making Addons. I will continue making freeware because it's my hobby, but I could not release it any longer.

I'm very annoyed at the moment, but I want to tell you this in case you are waiting for the new BAe 146 panel.

Best Regards
Matthias

Hi All,

First of all, thank you very much for your postings about this. Just one word about Flightsim.com. The file was uploaded yesterday to Flightsim. From my former uploads I know that Flightsim needs at least one day or more to provide the file. So it's not clear now, if Flightsim will also remove the file. Maybe it will be there this evening or tomorrow. Let's see.

@Peter,
Thank you for your offer. I highly appreciate it !!! Nevertheless the problem is not the webspace (I also have free space here), the problem is the traffic. The panel is about 10 MB. From my past panels I know that there will be hundreds of downloads within a very short time. My server has a limit of traffic volume. It doesn't stop the traffic, but if the volume goes over the limit, I have to pay for each KB This is what most providers do.

@Atkin,
I also thought about this idea. Nevertheless I don't want to do it. The reason is quite simple. If someone has a problem, he will write an Email then (most people prefer the contact via mail). As he didn't get an error message or feedback, he waits instead of using this forum. But I thank you very much for your idea!!!

@Peter (soggy),
The idea with Classic British Files sounds not bad. I know this site very well and I really could imagine that this is a nice home for my files (they are British too ) When Flightsim didn't release the panel too, I'm trying to contact CBF.

Best Regards

Hi All,

The panel is now available at Flightsim.com (same filename)

Also I got a further mail from Rick (Avsim). Seems that we are back in discussions. Let's see what happens. However I'm very happy that Nels did not have the same strong terms and has released it on Flightsim.

On this way also a great thanks to Chris Trott, who is/was in contact with Nels because of this.

Now I wish you (once again) a lot of fun with the panel. BTW: The panel was uploaded as a FS2004 panel. Nevertheless it works also in FSX.

Best Regards
Matthias

Hi jean marc and mikeflyer,

Thank you very much for your postings. Well, the things are past now. I'm very happy that I didn't get the same problems on other servers. Now, after the first rush, I also offer the panel from this site.

Best Regards
Matthias
