    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.

I've done these paints for the Lanc, but have never uploaded them. I figured no one was interested in them, because I've seen people complain about this plane. I can upload them if anyone is interested. I made my own paint kit with new bump textures.

Thanks everyone. Ok, will do. Just give me a couple of days to pack them up. . I have worked on the B1 special also, but not happy yet with the colors I have used on the day camo. I'll keep working on it. :very_drunk:

i know it, its a shame because some of their models are well constructed, I always wanted to do a few paints for their aero commander and Lanc but never have the energy to devote the time

But im liking what Jens and Rob have done
 
Lancaster B.1 PD238 "KC-H" of No 617 Sqn in the summer of 1944 as it looked just before the squadron introduced the yellow border on the sqn codes.

Thanks! I'm working on some colour tuning to get the dull red a bit more correct for the sqn codes. Credit also of course goes to Dave Q for letting me use his paintkit. I have made new roundels, colour tuned the camo and done some work on the camo pattern.

Avro Lancaster B.I EE146/KC-D, No.617 Sqn RAF, RAF Woodhall Spa, 1944
-Real aircraft was a Tallboy bomber with the deep bomb doors and without top turret. Used the MR.3 model as it does not have the top turret, but wrong aerials and bomb doors.
Flown by Wg Cdr Tait with Tallboy bomb for the 3rd and final attack on Tirpitz on November 12th 1944. Scored possibly the first hit on the mighty German battleship.
