  • 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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Hi Guys,
Here in South Africa, we have 2x privately owned L-39's, ZU-TEE & ZU-KIM.
Would it be possible to do a paint?
Sorry, I'm not used to posting pics.
Thanks, Robin

KIM looks like an easy one...and TEE looks like it'd be fun to do...

Am currently messing with G-OALB - trying to work out what the logo thingy is on the tail ... and it'll be done.

Then I'll have a go at these ones...;)
 
I missed ZU-ROL.

Our favourite is ZU-KIM. When we have our "Wings Parade" for our "Young Falcons", we also have a fly-in at Ysterplaat Air Force Base, here in Cape Town. We have our (Cape Virtual) clubhouse there, where we mentor the kids (2 year volunteer project, 30 juniors & 30 seniors per year). Private pilots from surrounding flying clubs, fly in & actually fly the kids, with the kids getting hands-on experience in flying.. The pilots of ZU-KIM also donate their time, (& aircraft) & give our top 2 students a surprise 20 minute flight.

So, we do have a soft spot for KIM!
 
OALB looks great Jafo:applause:

So many L39's still wear their military camo schemes but the more you look.. there are a hell of a lot that don't. There's enough out there to keep you going for a long time:biggrin-new:

Looks like there was no format for the camo paint style....just vaguely similar...
ZU-KIM looks like the third version [out of 3 - not a good batting average] ...so here it is roughed-in...gotta alter the camo yet again...and details to do...;)

Still seeing some irregularity with the Cabin Pressure system.. it's not keen on 4G turns! However.. noted it does catch up eventually without having to remake the ECS lever. Noted when coming in to land, the darned thing was on again. No idea why. When I pulled to a stop.. it had gone out:dizzy:

Like I told you the last time, I need the pressure indicator readings to know what's going on!

I don't know how far you want to take this project but for me.. it already ticks all the boxes. Hell.. I think an AP is OTT!! With Jafo's BZDI paint, I'm exactly where I want to be and am as happy as a dog with two tails:encouragement:

Thanks! Really appreciate hearing that.
 
Bjoern and Jafo, Just wanna say thank you for all your hard work and generous contribution. Lookin mighty good. :encouragement:
 
ZU-KIM looks finished....glossy paint for a camo...appears symmetrical...so that's what I did..;)
I'll upload these 2 recent ones soonish...then play with ZU-TEE.

Hi Bjoern:)

I'm at ISA mate.. 1013. Not tried it with real stuff yet. Don't worry about it. If you're not seeing it and I am, it MUST be operator error;)

Just downloaded the L-39C (came late to this thread)...I would love to have this 2D PANEL.

I'll recheck/revise it to 'match' Bjoern's VC and upload it sometime [once I've tired of the painting]...;)


Meanwhile...the beginnings of ZU-TEE...

Some really excellent work! Great additions to Bjoern's outstanding update to the L-39. Well done you two!
 
I gotta feeling ZU-TEE might even be black...and the 'blue' is just a sky reflection...
Anyone know for sure?

Edit... Here's a rework at 0,0,50 so only a bit blue...and 230,230,255 for the 'white' .... looks a bit closer...;)

Here's ZU-TEE looking 'finished'.
Unfortunately the checks on the tanks don't paint correctly on top...but otherwise OK...;)
