  • 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 we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Douglas C-47 v3 Livery Thread

Flew the 'Reeve' Livery from King Salmon down to Cold Bay - seemed to know the route. Rode on the original a few times, also their DC4 and 6 - never the Electra or the jet. You considering this guy?

Olderndirt, I already posted repaint request of the same livery that you are asking for but with much clearer photographs in color. You can see my previous post from last week or 2 weeks ago on this thread.

Regards,

Aharon

Great looking livery and photo. Don't understand why PAA ever went with the Globe.

Love to see someone do this for v3.
 
I know this is a livery thread, but right now in the moment I'm flying an JCBs Air America version on a Laos supply mission from LS-20a Long Tieng to LS-54 Luang Prabang in very marginal weather.

A few moments ago my copilot cracked me up by announcing "Oh man, my a$$ is hurting". A few minutes before that he sang some tune to chase away his boredom (he's letting me fight with the weather conditions, lazy ***, that he is).



What a wonderful aircraft package you guys have created! A huge thumbs up from me!



Cheers,
Mark

Mark , I got a ride in the jump seat of a NZ Railway Freight DC-3 1986, I should have kept my motorbike helmet on (I really go a sore head, but it was worth it), it was a cold winter southerly and the turbulence was great, you could hear the aircraft creaking and twisting, so in over Pararraumu and into Wellington, we taxied in, I then helped to unload, then was on the return flight on another back to Christchurch with the same, made for one hell of a memorable day ... this is were I love this DC-3 , really bring back memories ... Hells ! that was now over 30 years ago! :encouragement:

I've got to do those two NZ Freight livery's ... :very_drunk:
 
Here we go, loading the aircraft, 'CHECK OUT THOSE AIR STAIRS' :biggrin-new: Christchurch 1986 , once loaded and locked in the back that was our airbridge:encouragement:

Interesting with the only two windows, same on both sides Ian? Looks to be faint lettering after the Speedlink.
 
Ted :encouragement:, two windows both sides, the others were simply masked over, then after its freight duties it returned to the airline configuration ZK-AWP with 'Pionair' flying out of Wigram up to 2005/6 were it went offshore to fly in Australia, then returned to fly for Air Chatham's .

The writing behind the SPEEDLINK was PACELS in line font only .
