  • 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.

Right on the mark Jens, while people are free to choose fiction over authenticity, I (just me, myself) find the historic aircraft best.

Point is matey.. this will not be a fictional paint. The BBMF choose a scheme for the Lancaster which it will wear until it's next major overhaul. Obviously, no wartime bomber wore these two schemes on one aircraft at the same time so in this sense, it's not 'real' but the fact that the BBMF Lancaster will be painted like this and stay that way for some time makes it so. Thus.. a repaint done in this scheme for the BBMF Lancaster will be authentically (is that even a word??) correct for it during the period it wears it and beyond when it will become historically correct;)

Phew!:biggrin-new:
