FSplanet
Is it me, or has anybody managed to download anything from fsplanet.com ? It was recommended to me as having very good quality panels, scenery etc. and it looks to be true as you look through their website. But I've been trying for about a month now at ALL hours of the day and night and got absolutely nothing due to all of their nodes being busy. I would be interested to know if anybody has been successful.

HI Murphy,
Go to a legitimate site like avsim.com or flightsim.com. FSPlanet mainly leeches files from those two sites, in most cases against the author's wishes, then charges to download them. The reason you get "all nodes busy" is because you haven't paid for the privilege to download freeware. Justin "Murphy" wrote in message news:3q1sb.367038$9l5.29349@pd7tw2no...

Thanks Justin! And here I thought that it was a reputable site, but they
sure pushed their executive membership Regards, Murphy "FSGenesis" wrote in message ... HI Murphy, Go to a legitimate site like avsim.com or flightsim.com.

I look at their stuff, but to be honest, fsfreeware.com has the same
stuff usually. Just check their free downloads http://www.fsfreeware.com/dcd/new/ or you can just to go the section you like at http://www.fsfreeware.com/dcd/ I've found the downloads fast and always available. I HAVE been able to download from fsplanet, but rarely. Best way to do it is to bookmark the link it jumps you to and then keep trying that link instead of fsplanet's. Of course, the other links mentioned work well too. your mileage may vary. I like fsplanet's "look" with all the downloads, but even if you do get to download, it's super slow.

I once saw a post by Quilljar referencing a Gay Pilot's association, so I
figured that he was Gay! But then Eilzabeth R. posts that "We never use FSPlanet". I figure that "Eilzabeth R." is Mrs. Quilljar but reading the spelling of the name "Eilzabeth", maybe ...? I don't know! ;-) Dashi "Don Parker" wrote in message ... Dashi wrote: And I thought that "Quilljar" was Gay! ;- Huh?? |

Not gay, I'm just British. Unfortunately, according to most Hollywood films
that means I am either gay or an evil genius, I know:-) Incidentally, how ideas can be accidentally planted;I have never in my life posted anything about a Gay Pilot's Association, my wife and children would be astonished, especially the grandchildren... --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I remember seeing a topic in the other newsgroup that we both post in, where
someone asked for aviation links and you posted the link to "The Gay Pilot's Association", I think. You probably meant it as a joke but it didn't elicit any response, but I mentally filed it away. Glad to hear that you are "straight"! ;-) Dashi "Quilljar" wrote in message ... Not gay, I'm just British.
