  • 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.

    1. 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.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. 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.

Hey Stuart --

Where'd you find that GAF skin for the Dash-7?? Is it your work? Very Nice!

Hi BB!

This is my own, still unfinished GAF paint.
I'm wanting to make a three tone camo skin as to be seen on the Transalls from LTG 61.
The texture mapping makes it quite tricky to paint continious patterns, but I'm getting there!

Speaking of timewarps, as Flight 19 is on a holiday hiatus, I'm getting ready to start a 1934 KLM DC-2 flight from Amsterdam to Batavia in FS 1954. At least the mix of aircraft should keep it interesting! All navigation to be done by dead reckoning and ADF radio. No VOR or GPS

Getting ready for the first leg to Marseilles.

Time for some Carrier Re-Quals. Aeroplane Heaven Seafire III and the MAAM CVL from the TBM Avenger pack. I've got an around the world flight saved using only carriers to take off and land on to finish.

A Chance Meeting In Athens

Got back to the KLM flight for the Athens - Mersa Matrohs leg. On climbout, I looked down and spotted this contemporary of the DC-2. Then after I did a 180 headed south and spotted this ol' battlewagon. All in all, a good day to cross the Med...

A bit foggy in Northern Egypt today. Enough so that I did a couple of laps circling above the wrong airport trying to get my bearings to the right one.

Next stop on the 1934 timetable is Gaza Airport. But the current one in FS9 didn't exist back then. So, I'm looking at other local options.
