    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.

I'm really happy with this choice, though, as it was so good looking. I read up on some of it's routes and the problems they had with them. Hopefully, they won't be modeling the wing flutter problem. ;)

Indeed! :)

Or a Catalina. Of course, that has guns, so they (MS) probably wouldn't make it.

Well the A-10 model proves it can always be replaced by a search light.. Hehe. (ridiculous! ;-) But isn't it like a Catalina is already in the works for quite some time ?..

Yes, there's plenty of interesting routes to fly with the Late if you read the history of this remarkable and sadly very unfortunate flying boat. Probabely caused by its development during a bad moon rising..
 
Talk about non British/US flying boats.

Javis: "Really ?... 4 on each cylinder ??...."
The B-36 had SIX PW-4360 engines each with 28 cylinders and TWO plugs per cylinder. That's a whole bucket of spark plugs...:mixed-smiley-010:Might be one of the reasons that beast isn't flying today, although it would be a first day buy for me to see it in MSFS..
 
After seeing this I did some research, article I found said they were planning in using turboprops, which seams pretty far fetched to me. But it does not appear to have made it off the drawing board. I could not find any analysis on weather it would actually been able to fly had they finished it.
