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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.

A great but small scenery . I have compared it with Google Earth
Having recently bought Islandsim's KRNO scenery I completed a flight to various airports in the area. As it has been a while since I flew the Orbx North American regions, I had forgotten how rich the Orbx scenery for this area is (using Orbx Northern California and Orbx South Lake Tahoe) and thought I would post a few screenshots.
On wide base for 18 KTVL
Finals 18 KTVL
Taxiing towards ramp KTVL
Ramp looking south KTVL
Ramp looking north KTVL
Climbing over Lake Tahoe out of KTVL
FSX may be an old sim but it is still impressive!

Final to 18 is a beauty! Here I will show you the almost done project!
Galway Hospital
Galway-Renmore Harbor and Barracks
Nun Island and Galway Hospital
Renmore Barracks
The other Hospital by the airport, even though there is not a landing pad there, it is nice VFR.

Wow that is a very impressive enhancement for Galway which really otherwise was lacking points of interest in FSX or even in Orbx Ireland! I think the hospital in the last screenshot, if I remember correctly, is called Merlin Park and is basically a specialised orthopaedic hospital. When you release it, I will test it with both UTX and Orbx Ireland.
It really is! This is after I landed on the secondary pad - the detaill of the hospital windows looks very realistic!

Yeah George Keogh's freeware airports are very good! I think all of them are still available in the Avsim library.
In addition to lots of Irish airfields and smaller airports, he also has done some very nice scenery for quite a few airports in Hawaii and a handful of stunning airports in the Greek Islands and even an upgrade of the default scenery around the iconic Friday Harbor airport (although I don't use this as I have the Orbx version).
Certainly worth taking a look at his scenery if you are planning a bit of flying around Ireland.

Some more P.202:
Progress on Version 2.0 Johnson Space Center Houston!
Rocket park includes the Saturn V rocket, and Talon Park. Boardwalk in the background.
Clear Lake Hospital with helipad! Uses the KEFD tower in real life. But adds another landmark to line up base for Runway 35L. Its pretty difficult to land there, very steep approach.
