    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.

Coming to FSX S-2A Tracker

Euroastar350 is working on the native FSX S2T Civilian Tanker, or has it in his list to do after his release of my C-1A Trader which was last month.
 
Thank you! This is the S-2A and S-2AL (capped hawkbill nacelle) models. I pretty much have the exterior textures done and have moved to the VC and adding some details there.

I also have firefighter X and in my opinion is the best addon for FSX but that also has alot to do with the fact that I pretty much only fly airtankers in flight sim.
 
My English could be worse, but I am totally clueless about the "capped hawkhill" nacelles! :dizzy:
Do you mean the "flat-faced" ones, not to be confused with the pointy ones?
 
Haha sorry the capped hawkbill ones would come to a point if you were looking from the top down. Those were seen more on the US-2A/Bs. The squared nacelle was more early S2F-1 or TS-2A. Anyway Milton graciously modeled both so both will be with this package.
 
Just FYI, but I've got one C-1A almost finished with some more in the pipeline.

BuNo 146027 is pretty much complete, just needs final inspection, making a thumbnail and packaging it all up.

BuNo 136754 is about 2/3 done. Actually just need to do the nacelles and cowlings, but on this one, those are going to be some of the toughest parts.

There's a couple more Navy ones I want to do and then some fictional civilian ones (The Trader should make one heck of a bush plane)

Willy, there is a cargo version of the C-1A, not native FSX however. You can click on the link in my signature to pull it up.

Thanks Milton! I might have found a new replacement for the ol' Twin Beech! Where'd I put that bucket of zinc chromate???

Shameless plug for my own work here - I did a fictional civilian cargo livery for the C-1A when it was released (in fact, I got started on it before the plane went gold) with a redo of the interior to match. I recommend you take a look at it, as I'm really rather proud of my interior work.

Thanks! I've got a few civilian type cargo paints in mind as well. Just want to get the Navy ones out of the way first.
 
This project is still alive just have a few things going on in the RW (starting new career and getting married) but other than that I have lots of free time. Here are some WIP shots of the VC

New career and getting married... Is that all?! :biggrin-new: Congrats on both counts.

The WIP looks great. Take your time; it sounds like you'll need to.

Cheers,
 
Appreciate the comments. First time making gauges here so starting with the background detail. Trying to get this as realistic as possible

 
Really nice!

Will you be able to make a standard COD version of your beautiful work when you have finished the tanker? I made a texture (available here) of "Miss America" the CVA-66 USS AMERICA COD for Milton's C1A when it was released. I've done a 2D panel for it but your VC is just fantastic and I would like to be able to add it in original C1A version to my "Miss America".
