    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.

Wow! Great shots Duckie :applause:
 
Back when I modeled the Marauder, the 3-views and reference pics were of little help in getting the nose Plexiglas just right.

The best pics I had that could be used for reference were of this restoration. Unfortunately the nose plexi frame was not accurate for the WWII period aircraft.

Duckie brought this to my attention as I was mistakenly under the belief that some aircraft from some plants had this framework.

So, after some analysis and review of the model, I decided to make it right. I have sent the models off to Steve to check them over.

Attached is one of three pics I used for reference in the original design, and the model after the change.

I hope you like this more accurate version.

BTW, if you want to do the restored version shown in the attachment, you had better save a copy of your current model. :)

First thanks

and second-that may happen.We had making the TA-152 same exercise when we took measures @ Smithonian, later to find out (Mathias) that they mounted the wrong wings ( 190D11 ) to the plane( and told them )

FSX gets more and more a historical collection about planes history

Best regards

Roland
 
Attached are Replacement model folders.

Pilot head animations improved to get him in the game, and get his head out of the port wheel well.

After a short break I started this one...

"Georgia's On My Mind", or, as she was affectionately know to her crews, "Old Dog P"

I don't suppose anyone is working on a 640th BS livery for this, are they? Were I a better painter then I'd have a crack at one, but I neither have the source information or ability to do a good job of it.

I've got large chunks of Little Walden done, though, if anyone has something to fly out of it?. ;)
