    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.

Thanks good news YoYo! Looking forward to your olive drab creations. I Your new repaint will definitely be a R4D!

BTW uploading here at the SOH is really very easy.

Cheers,
Huub
 
I uploaded another of my skins, tuned up for the V3 model. This one is DXT5, rather than 32 bit which has been received with mixed reviews.

@ zsoltquack


Your repaint serie is awesome :applause:

Don't stop painting !
Waiting for your uploads :encouragement:

Thanks - Gérard
 
To the C-47 V3 team

At last, I am back home and could fly this great C-47. :applause:

Congratulations.
I don't find the words to express my great admiration.
The "audible checklist" is a brillant idea - very immersive.

It was worth the (long...) wait :adoration:

Gérard
 
DaveB how did you transfer the shiny engine cowls to Ron's Atlantique ,as I would like to do that as well.

Cheers Chris

Hello Zsolt,

Thanks for all of your great paints and FS work!

According to Warbird Information Exchange (http://www.warbirdinformationexchange.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=26970) and Joe Baugher's website (http://www.joebaugher.com/), it is 42-93790, which is now on display at Ft Benning. GA in WWII colors.

"May 1960 found the C-47A with the 112th Tactical Fighter Squadron (ANG), in Toledo, Ohio. The 112th at this time were operating the F-84 Thunderjet and in 1960 the 112th merged with the 180th Tactical Fighter Group, flying the F-84 Thunderjet F-84F Thunderstreak and into 1971. 790 may have been used as a Support/Admin Aircraft."

"42-93790 (MSN 13741) seen in 2007 on display at Ft Benning, GA, having been displayed there since at least Mar 1970."

It would be a good subject for a lifespan set of liveries, showing various operators. There are pictures of the Alaska paint job also.

One point of note, as the Ohio ANG aircraft, the tail number was probably marked as 0-93790, like here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/billywilt/13907390913.

Thanks again for your paints!

Hi Dan,

Thanks to the info

Zsolt
 
Thanks, Dave. I actually have that scenery, but not installed.

To All: just a suggestion. Most of the talk in this thread is now about liveries. Wouldn't it be better to put that talk in the dedicated livery thread and leave this thread for feedback or questions about the new model? Would help me keep track easier as I try to follow the thread and pass info back to the team.
