Keep trying is the best advice I can give. "no such file or directory" is
an indication that the mirror you selected hasn't fully synced up yet.
There's a couple things that can cause an aircraft package to get updated
and assigned a new version. It's all the aircraft designer's fault of
course. :-) Likely they didn't provide a real version number for their
aircraft so the date of the most recently modified file in the package is
chosen as the version number. But then some authors never included a
thumbnail image for the web site, so we just fixed that for a few aircraft
and of course the version number gets changed due to the most recent file
modification becoming newer.
So hopefully we'll get our mirrors all synced up soon, and I have to say
that from watching network stats, it's pretty crazy how much new attention
the v2.0.0 release is generating. So when the ftp mirror asks for a
password, that usually means it's at it's maximum number of anonymous
downloaders already.
Regards,
Curt.
