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.

As it happens Willy I got the final parts of it sent to me tonight!
However, it would be no use me sending it to you without the models to test your paints on!
Just to keep the interest going here's a couple of shots from last night's flight test, taken at dusk along the California coast just SW of LA.
The project is progressing at quite a pace and currently we are just waiting for the final textures, the manual (99% complete) and final clean up of aircraft and panel config files to remove unneeded remarks etc.
Hopefully we can go to beta in the near future.

Wouldn't know it was the old FS9 -119 at all. 'Course, at this point, it isn't.
There are still some bits of the original mesh left on the outside but the inside is all new.

Absolutely stunning work! This too will find a place in my virtual hangar......
On a side note, this done up as an AC bird would be such a great companion to all the custom made SEA airfields and projects popping up, just saying, not complaining at all. You guys do wonderful work.

I second this.
We are very close to having a historically accurate Laotian theater with accurate roads and moving convoys....and lethal AAA (with FSCAI).
Flying over the pitch black Laotian jungle and having green and red tracers fly up at you is pretty exciting. Unfortunately, the screen shots don't really do it justice.
It would be awesome to go truck hunting with a AC-119 "Stinger"... although it would likely require a lot of work to implement the advanced systems they carried.

There won't be a dedicated Gunship model, only a camo livery done on the base model. Larry had stated that reworking the model was not in the cards. He has several other projects nearing completion and having to add another model to the mix at this point would delay release indefinitely. So this is where your imagination comes into play, while you're in the Camo livery, flying over the Jungle at night you can make machine gun sounds when you spot VC encampments, lol.
Asked Santa for a Boxcar for Christmas...guess he misunderstood.

We were hoping for a surprise Xmas release but RL got in the way unfortunately. The time has been well spent however with more eye candy modeled and cross-platform bugs killed. Now we are just waiting for final textures and a last beta run.
