  • 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.

    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.

A big tip of the hat toTim"piglet" Conrad...

Jafo, this aircraft, ZF210 I believe has markings above/below wings.

I've found these off the net if any good.

Yes...looks like 210 is quite different.
I found some more pics of 200 ...looks like all it has is the '200' on the wings like on other T1s in the RAF....and a reg number under the tail wings.... which I'll add...;)

Ick ....horrible link...but if it works there's the 200.

Edit....the serial is a Civil reg... N822RS ...Worldwide Warbirds.
It also lacks the 'ZF' and the Ejector signs ...;)

Maybe work on it after the Orlik. :encouragement:

Nah...it's a case of having the 'bits' already from the others...so while I'm doing the 200 I just have to add '10' ...;)

Here it is about half done....just adjustments and the flashes on the wings...

Celebrating 90 Years of RAF ...Flt Lt Stew Campbell 72 Sqdn....and definitely quite different to the 200.

I think 210's one of the prettier...
The issue I have with these RAF versions is the 'translation' into a 314...deciding what to add from a 312...and what to retain that 'should' stay on it because it's still actually a 314. The wing-walk area markings is one of the things that stays, along with the small general notes.
And of course....proportions....which is why the Orlik is not the easiest to translate...it's a bit 'challenged' in the length department.
Looking at the size of the tail and ventral stabilizer it looks like they had approach angle and/or yaw issues. They 'could' have just stretch the thing a bit more. As planes go it looks like a 'Pug' ...;)

I had an Orlik repaint for the Iris PC-21 done by Pawel Szukala from here at SOH. From a certain angle it was very similar, but the Toucan is really loong in the empannage comparatively speaking.
 
Sort of almost there....gotta find the Ejector seat triangles and it's about done.

Edit....it's done.
I'll upload soonish.
