    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.

Lockheed S-3 Viking - The Sequel Thread

Mai 1985: The german navy took part in the exercise "fish hunting" in the mediterranean see. This picture was taken near the sardininan coast showing the 43+89 at one of their missions.

 
A little off topic, but did anybody ever make a paint kit for this wonderful aircraft ? I would love to do some paints but can't seem to get them right without a paint kit. Even a simple one would do. Any suggestions ?

No, there is no "official" paintkit. For the paint above, I have made my own. But at the moment it is very customized for the needs of the "Marine" livery.

Hi,
just question, can't find it. Where is shut off fuel or how to turn off engines?
Throttles doesn't take a "off" position and I don't see fuel cutoff switch.

A couple of miscellaneous asnwers:



- Engine exhaust effect is a leftover from a comparison I did between my aicraft.cfg and the DSB one... they are not meant to be there.


/QUOTE]

Dino,

So, the exhaust effect was not suppose to be there? I'm confused. Please explain.
I also noted that the fan blades seem to take a while to stop spinning when the engines are shut off. Is that normal?

Turbofan engines never stop spinning........... They only cease to have power driving the fan blades. Once fuel is cut off, the engine Will spin with even the slightest breeze.
