    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.

"Kopaida" airfield uploaded

Dimus

SOH-CM-2025
I managed to finish this field after I actually flew over there for the first time and took a few pics myself. Unfortunately the Greek Free Fall Club ceased operations and their tents and buildings are now gone but I left the scenery as it was in hopes they will come back soon.

The file includes a repaint for Piglet's Porter as I also have a traffic file that uses this repaint to simulate the GFFC's skydiving Porter painted in "Alien" graffity paint.

It is good to also have my "Ikaros" airport scenery installed as the two fields are just 1.5 miles from each other and make for a great hopping TnG session between them. Unfortunately Ikaros is also closed now as an airport but the runway and small terminal are still there.

There is a photo background for the field with slight seasonal variations and autogen trees and shrubs

The scenery works fine in P3D V2.x

Some shots from FSX:







 








The scenery is uploaded also at Avsim and waiting for clearance. It could also take some time to appear here too.

Hope you enjoy it. I will be flying there in real life more often now for taildragger grass field practice.
 
Thanks for the sticky Roger!

edit: oops! Tanks Tom, I just assumed...

Has anybody seen Dimus?

I just had my friend's Cessna 140 shipped :running: over and thought I'd give him a little "taildragger" time in it.

That would really be a treat Randy!

Glad you like it guys. This project was on hold for almost two years waiting for the chance to actually visit the place.
 
port-over to P3Dv4

Hi Dimus,
being quite impressed by your stunning Locher scenery, I gave a try to Kopaida under P3Dv4.
It runs quite fine and is a very charming place to fly over !
The only inconsistency is with Tom Piglet's PC-6 AI traffic which taxis several hundred meters north of the ramp and taxiway among bushes (but that's a bushplane anyway:untroubled:).
Thank you VERY much for your great sceneries Dimus !
Best regards,
Francois
 
Thank you Francois! I have not checked this one in v4 yet. I'll have a look at how the Porter behaves.

Edit: It does indeed act funny but it takes off in the end. Strange, I need to investigate how AIs work on the AFCAD in V4.
