    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.

Sometimes you just have to enjoy the scenery, the aeroplane just takes you there.

Nuke'em till they glow...

...and shoot 'em in the dark

Touring Iran, down low and hot with a Viggie mod emphasizing the 'A' in RA-5C. Armament kit encompasses the usual armament options of the day, and several whiffs.
SRAM, in this case.
 
NAA Retaliator

Floated to the RAAF in 1962. Would have been interesting.

The other Retaliator proposed was a long range interceptor for ADC, equipped with a NAA liquid rocket booster in the tunnel...yeah, I'm at that, too.
 
I have recently purchased the AH P-47D, and must say I am very pleasantly surprised as to how good of a model this is. After A2A's old Accusim P-47, this would be a tough one to follow up, but the 'bubbletop" has lovely animations, good choice of paints and customization, and realistic systems/ animations. Not to mention, two stunning repaints by Snurdley here in the library that I feel really get this model to it's full potential.

The FDE is generally pretty good (probably as, if not better, than A2A's) except for the ground handling, which many FDE's fail to get quite right. I can't imagine it's easy to replicate the handling of a heavy tailwheel in FSX/P3D, but many developers still struggle to get the feel of how a taildragger behaves. The only ones that come close IMO have been A2A's T6, and perhaps flight replica's Bf109.
But still, this is a really great model and a welcome addition.
