    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.

B-50 Teasers

Really looking forward to this, and very many thanks to all the team. One question - will there be a paint kit?? The one with the C-97 was brilliant.

Virtavia b29 vc

Tested using the b29 vc for Manfred's c-97. It works fine and is easy to do. Of course you have to own the b-29 first.

No worries Manfred. I am sure this beauty will be worth the wait.

BUDSCH, excellent news on the B-29 VC.
 
After reading about the Virtavia B-29 VC being patched into this project I finally broke down and got it. I was actually impressed by it, no need to spend the extra on the P3D version, the FSX version works fine in V4, and with PCAviators perpetual 50% off sale the price is much more favorable.

I also pulled out V3 of the C-97 and few it around for a while, also another gem, not sure if I even need to patch in the Virtavia VC into it. I had been missing the A2A B377 in P3D but with Manfreds C-97, I won't miss it too much.

Very much looking forward to the B-50 package.
 
I think the B-29's VC is the best single piece of modelling that Alphasim/Virtavia has ever done. Mate it up to a B-50 by Manfred Jahn, and you really will have a slice of aeroplane heaven.
 
:)) I'll see that I can get it uploaded on Sunday here at SOH. Will open a new thread then.

Paintkit a few days later.
 
Hi Manfred,

Is the AI package on the shelf for the long term - or is there hope that it can be resurrected shortly? The B-50 had a good number of stateside USAF bases, as well as the USAFE ones that it deployed to. An AI set with it and the C-97 tankers would really create the perfect background.

Thanks for all that you have done,

Bill
