Special Server Maintenance
Just when you think you have everything running some what better...
You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.
- November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.
If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.
To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.
Thank you for your support.

Remember to pour a 40 on the corner or drop a nickel in the grass for the COD.
The USN's on-board delivery platform since 1965 is set to retire this week.
I've dug out the Alpha V-22 paintkit with the intention of painting up the successor, the CMV-22B. Looking at VRM-40 to start with.

Andy, good news- someone beat you to it. 
Bad news- they posted their repaints at FS.com.
Let me dig thru the downloads and I'll get in touch.
Its actually a nice set of Osprey's. Most are USMC, one is USAF (SAR) and two are (WESTPAC) CV's.
Let me know if you just want to Fly Navy or if you want the full set.

Lots of cool Repaints of the Osprey available on here:
https://sim-outhouse.org/sohforums/search/83700/?q=osprey&t=resource&o=date
And on Avsim as well… even with Special Paintjobs…

Gotta say though, I am more a fan of the Wilco Tilt Rotor Aircraft than of the Alphasim V-22 Osprey.

The repaints here are, in the main, for the FSX Maryadi Osprey. It was the repaint of the CMV-22B for that bird that got me looking at trying to have a stab for FS9.
And I'm also a fan of the Wilco Tilt Rotor, totally with you there.

A few days later than expected, but here we are, ready to re-commence our Colorado river adventure from Hite (UT03). Yes I know, not a lot to see, one runway E W. Not much else except the pretty view of the Dirty Devil.
Piper relented and lent us this PA28R 200 (by CLS) an almost new (and well maintained) Arrow II. This is no Dead Horse. Money is where the luxury is, Cub owners are not Pipers’ desired demographic; they wish to push them gently up market to where the good margins live.
So here she is:
Take off on the 2200’ long runway is no problem even at 3800’ altitude although the gusty wind takes me by surprise:
From the easterly rwy at Hite (UT03) we sweep round onto a south westerly course down Glen Canyon and over the troubled waters of lake Powell:
Levelled off and cruising downstream over the diminished lake. Over the last decade or two the water level has decreased to 30% of what Glen Canyon Dam was designed for, if this continues, soon the Dam will not be able to produce hydro-electric power or pass the volumes of water expected downstream.
But from this altitude all looks serene (although the FS9 default scenery is a bit drab):
The lake stretches some 100 miles down to the dam. We have travelled around 40 miles and two airports present themselves on opposite sides of the lake: Bullfrog (U07) and Black Memorial (U96), both intriguing names and I fancy a change of aircraft, maybe something faster…
We decide to land at Black Memorial, it has a longer runway and fuel plus our new aircraft is waiting for us there.
What can one say about the Arrow II? Well it’s cruising along at an IAS of 120 Kts at 6000’ giving a GS of 136 Kts at 2100 RPM. Competent, comfortable, dependable? YES, exciting? Maybe less so. But then as Confucius said: “Blessed is the man that lives in boring times”.
About to touch down at Black Memorial rwy 1.
Unloading and about to say goodbye to the Arrow:
The new aircraft for the next leg of the adventure has arrived, with a good dollop of comfort and speed: …

A trio of 60's Fleet Air Arm metal
That would be the Virtavia Phantom. I don't remember which pack, but it is the pack containing the C and D models I think.
