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.

Too bad I couldn't find the equivalent (well, almost) scene from "Hot Shots" on Youtube. It would have been my comment to that picture.

USAF Lockheed C-130A Hercules heading on a course of 180 at 11,500 on a dawn flight flight from George AFB (KVCV), Victorville, California in the early 1960's.
I am wondering what texture sets others in our community use? These screens are using a mix of textures generated from Flight1 Ground Environment Pro and Flight Environment.

Our intrepid little Herc-bird winging south on another flight to San Diego from George AFB.
A Boeing B314 Clipper heading out of Treasure Island Seaplane Base in San Francisco Bay...
I have been trying out various texture sets and these screens were made using the REX Real Environment Overdrive....So far i am liking the sets that can be generated from this program....

Unsong heroes of Vietnam...tactical Airlift...!
We always here about Rolling Thunder...Linebacker...
We see the videos of B-52 attacks, the tactical close air support, and the duels with the Migs and so on, but do we remember those boys who kept everyone with beans, bacon and bullets? Got to love those men who had the balls to fly tactical airlift missions while taking fire...
Fairchild C-123 Provider could bring in supplies and so on unimproved fields of around 3,000ft or less...The UC-123 was also used in the spraying of 'Agent Orange' defoliant. The Provider was one of the few planes that could get into Khe Sanh during the siege to drop off supplies and fly out wounded.
de Havilland Canada C-7 Caribou was also instrumental in lifting the siege of Khe Sanh, but its main use, along with the US Army CV-2 variant, was used to supply forward Special Forces bases where landing strips were improvised and only around 1,500ft.
Lockheed C-130 Hercules was the workhorse of Tactical Airlift in Vietnam...
I wonder if the USAF could conduct the same types of operations today with its present inventory of stretched C-130J Hercules and C-17 Globemaster III machines...I don't think so...!!!

What Huey is that one and where can i get the nice dress it is in?
The model is the Deane Baunton's RNZAF Huey, and the gunship is his US Army model both very long in the tooth but still the best Huey's out there in my opinion. You should find them over at hovercontrol.com.
The textures start here in the file library http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforu...on=show&sort=d&literal=1&userid=27434&page=11
I did 19 paint schemes for it in total.
