    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.

Alternate B-17G skin for B-17G B-17G-50_773

Alternate B-17G skin for B-17G B-17G-50_773 2024-07-09

My intention with my set of four B-17 schemes is to provide appropriate B-17 skins for as much of the war as our single model, the G, allows. This is the third, a natural metal example with modest red tail and wingtip group markings. While this particular example dates from early 1945, such markings began appearing on B-17s before D-Day. It represents B-17G 43-38669 of the 603rd Bomb Squadron/398th Bomb Group, early 1945. Based on the original, the differences here are the individual aircraft markings, some difference in the reflectivity, and the addition of anti-glare panels in front of the cockpit and on the engines. Sorry for the fuzziness around the tail numbers from certain angles. I just couldn't solve that issue! Unzip to your main CFS3 ETO directory, overwriting as necessary (save the original textures first if you wish). I believe this skin can also be used with any B-17G derived from the ETO B-17G with some thorough file renaming. This is not compatible with the Firepower B-17G.
