    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.

Great paint !

One question, is it possible to include the 'noseout.dds' file in the repaint texture folder which is the shiny aluminum color ? When looking out from the VC, the nose shows up as black in color, but should be shiny silver, no ?

Thank-you, again !
 
V3 American Airlines?

Is there a C-47 (DC-3) Skytrain V3 in American Airlines livery? If so is there a link to the download? I flew in one of these in 1964 from Detroit to Buffalo. A memory I will never forget!

Thanks for your help!

Al,
Not sure that an AA repaint has been released for the v3...
At my side, I use v2 repaints without troubles on the v3 bird (I guess one of the great enhancements on v3 is engines rendition, which you will of course miss with the v2).
Sometimes, you have to look for more appropriate noseout.dds textures. Also check the texture.cfg for proper fallbacks, and change the "Sim" line in the aircraft.cfg to Sim=Douglas_DC3_V1.5.
