The Military AI Reference contains more than 900 entries by now. The Military AI World Map reflect all these plus the MAIW packages. So if you have not been around for a while, you might want have a look again.

Have a nice weekend! :smt001
Cheers,
Martin

Hi Giorgio,

all true AI from you list should be in. I am still sitting over the CFS and non-AI models and mulling what to do with those - I don't want to mix them in without at least a special flag.

For several other ones true AI versions are meanwhile available (e.g. B-17, P-51, thanks again to John Young :smt001), so I skipped them.
Cheers,
Martin

BTW, if you need some info about them, let me know.

Ciao, Giorgio

With a proud feeling I can say that today - exactly 4 months after the introduction - the Military AI Reference has passed 1.000 entries. I like to express my thanks to the kind people of MAIW, AIG and NZFF who - exclusively - have provided feedback and helped to make this list what it is today.

Cheers,
Martin

Thank you :smt001

As you can imagine the handling of +1000 records has a certain potential for errors. I was just notified about one. So please - when you find anything where I ended up being wrong - technically, link-wise or regarding the authorship - please let me know and I will correct this.
Cheers,
Martin

The Military Aircraft Reference has crossed the 1.000 mark and the Military AI Reference just broke through the 2.500 barrier.

Yes truly! I'm amazed at the level of detail available from your different pages.

Who would have thought back in 2006 that we would have come this far??

I don't post much, Martin, but I do keep tabs on goings on. Your references are used often. Thanks much for the work. Much appreciated.

Hello Martin, using your unvaluable reference list, I noticed that JY Tiger Moth is not in present.
I make you aware that clicking on Military AI Reference link, from my Very Very Old I.E.8, it freezes.(Win7)
Using Chrome, it works fine. :wink:

Thanks, Giorgio

Hi Giorgio,

Thanks for telling me about IE8. Is any other side of my web failing as well? (sorry for using you as a tester, but you can test airport search and distance calculator with the new google api). Can please somebody else confirm this as a problem with IE8?

Giorgio, the Tiger Moth is listed since ages as "de Havilland Tiger Moth". I guess you are missing it because you can't use the filter function.
Cheers,
Martin

Giorgio, forget the testing, I could replicate it with IETester. I HATE IE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is working in IE6, IE7, IE9, IE10 and IE11 but not in :smt067 IE8

It must be something in a script, I will try to find what it is. Still try the distance calculator if you have not for some time....
Cheers,
Martin

Me again. Giorgio. Please start the AI Reference in IE8 and wait some stupid long time, say 3 minutes or even 5. Does that page then display and is usable without further delays and time-outs?
Cheers,
Martin

I was searching/filtering for JY aircrafts for FS9, for a "crazy" project I started.(don't know yet if it'll come to life... :roll: ). This is why I can't find it, only the FSX version is listed. :wink:

Right you are. Past and copy error, we had two FS9 Rapids one of them with the Moths specs (DF112, R4922). It is fixed now.
