    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.

Somebody in the Beech 18/ C45/ AT11/ SNB Facebook group posted a pic of this aircraft over the weekend and I forwarded it to Cees Donker. He and I were wondering if this paint has been done for Milton's Beech 18. Former RCAF trainer, now registered in the Netherlands as PH-KHV, painted as the fictional 29th of the 28 Beech trainers the RNLAF actually had in the 1950's. I like the aluminum paint and RNLAF insignia.

Cees,

the base aircraft is the fsx conversion , which can be found here at the SOH archive, d18fsxMs and d18fsxMsfix by Milton Shupe .
From the skhv files only the eng0_t, eng1_t, fuse_t, tail_t, wings_t and strut2. bmp files are used.
The bump maps i have to search from which source they came, probably they also came from SOH archives.
A while back there was a thread about the D18.

Bump maps are from the beech by Willy, wm_Beech_18_FSX_American.zip also to be found in the SOH archives.
they really make this plane coming alive, thanks Willy.:applause:

You're welcome. Those bumps drove me nuts for weeks trying to figure out how to do bump maps.
 
Wim, thanks for the heads-up on where to find the paint and thank you Willy for your work on the bump maps. :encouragement:
