    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.

Some little changes to the ND BO-105 of German Army. Tank hunter BO-105 PAH. Never understand why ND did not do this model

I was going to say, thats not a stock ND B105, i must well done, its a welcome improvement as i do agree its lacking the gunship version, just 2 m60s is pretty plain, Ive always contemplating doing something similar to just paint some gunship schemes
 
I just want to know how you guys are uploading full size screenshots. The attachment way doesn't work for me, size and detail wise.

I use ImageShack (costs around $29.00+/- annual sub) which allows me to copy/paste full size images into a post.
Not sure about the 'free' image hosting services but others use them.

Missing images

I've noticed on my PC and those at my work, that when I view these pages a lot of images now don't appear, my own included. For example I don't see any of MD Ivey's pics, and that's a lot of pics. Is anyone else seeing (not seeing) this?


Ah! Just a minute, it might have something to do with fsfiles.org, as I've just tried getting on there and got a error 522 connection timed out!
 
I think the problem is with fsfiles.org... it's a part of AussieX I believe and didn't I read they'd been hacked? May be related to that.

I flew in a Beverley back in '65 with the Air Training Corps at Thorney Island. Unforgettable, especially as the vibration was such that I couldn't focus, so God knows how the pilot could see his instruments!:engel016: A beautifully ugly aircraft and I am soo looking forward to this:santahat:

Let's see them get that vibration in the finished version! :biggrin-new:
That ought to be an...interesting plane to fly!

I used to see them regularly flying into Northolt. I was also lucky and saw the one that flew into Hendon and became part of the RAF Museum. I think that may have been the last flight.
 
"Beautifully ugly aircraft," that's an apt description. Mind you, not the ugliest - that prize would surely go the similarly configured French NC211 "Cormoran". While the Beverley had many faults it could pack all kinds of outsize cargo, military and humanitarian, and deliver it where it needed to go. This YT video has some interesting accounts and detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57vVZv8-vKQ

For pallet dropping the plane often flew with its loading doors removed. Anecdotally, a Beverley once took off from Aden with the rear doors off and ATC, who had not seen this type of aircraft before, called out to the pilot “You’ve taken off and you forgot to close the rear doors”. "Yes, thanks, I know," the pilot replied, "I can’t get the bloody gear up either."
 
That thing looks like a great big fat tadpole... LOL.

Had they been able to configure retractable landing gear for it... it may have not come across as quite so ugly...:biggrin-new:
