    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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

I went out and did a search to get more information on when Alaska Airlines changed the coloring on the engine nacelles from gold to black on the DHC6 Twin Otters and look what I found:

and I found the repaint for it.

Where, please and would that be for FSX default Grumman Goose?? I did NOT even know that Alaska Airlines used Golden Nugget livery for Grumman Goose. I also have Golden Nugget livery for Captain Sim L-100 (C-130) and Vistaliner 727. Golden Nugget is my favorite livery for Alaska Airlines!!! I prefer that livery over famous Esmiko tail livery.
 
The Repaint has to be used with the OzX Grumman Goose Redux that is available here for free as well as the Alaska Air Golden Nugget repaint. Just open up Resources and search in Resources for Grumman Goose. Even though it said P3D, it works fine in FSX Acceleration. If you don't want to "pull out your hair" trying to wonder why the engine keeps dying, you should have checked your fuel tanks in the preflight walkaround and you would have found out they were empty. Go up to the menu...aircraft...fuel and payload and put the fuel in both tanks, sufficient quantity for the trip with 10% for contingiency. If you use Simbrief and plot your flight you will be given the amount of fuel you need plus extra. Put this amount in "Fuel and Payload".
