    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.

Formation work

A little late afternoon formation work with my AI. I haven't done this in a while and I am VERY rusty. Not to mention the Virtavia F-104 isn't the most easy to handle birds. Especially in speed control....

Haven't seen a Me 323 before.

UENOSHING did a great job with the XFV-1, unfortunately the real aircraft never got the engine it was designed for so it never did any VTOL.
It did do a transition to the hover at altitude, a clip on you tube showing the transition. It's a bit tricky to take off vertically but it's well modelled and fun to fly.
 
The Me323 was part of the Lionheart Creations Valkyrie advanture package for FS2004. The package is not longer for sail, but it came with flights, cars, scenery and a lot of AI. It even contained 2 submarine pens and a submarine. The package was fun, but only two aircraft which were included are still for sale. This is the dual package containing the Bucker Bu181 Bestmann and the Grunau baby glider. Like most models by William "Lionheart" Ortis they are very nicely done.

There is also an Me323 by Mr Ito, which most likely will port over to FSX without problems, as most models by Mr Ito do.

Cheers,
Huub

Lockheed L-18 Lodestar "The Liz"

The LIZ.jpg

Leased to Elizabeth Taylor's then husband and movie mogul Mike Todd. He was killed in March 1958 when the plane crashed due to an engine failure and ice buildup. The airplane was also significantly overweight.


A repaint of Milton Shupe and team's great model redone for FSX / P3D.


Only a poor film clip, one partial color photo and two partial B&W photos could be found of this plane, but I believe it is close.
