    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.

MAIW releases RAF Lakenheath and Upper Heyford

Also on Avsim are the retro paints for the AI F-111s and F-4s. Parking spots might need to be adjusted for the other models.
 
Wow! Thankyou! I don't check in for a few days and come back to this awesome surprise. A definite download, install and exploration tonight.Cheers

For FS purposes like the mix of F-4, F-111 and F-15 all together, but historically not sure they all overlapped?

From what I can see, it looks like the only overlap would be due to the squadrons of the 48th FW receiving new equipment over the course of a few months. The Phantoms were swapped for F-111s in 1977, so some potential ramp-sharing then, and in turn, the Aardvarks were replaced by the F-15s in 1992.
 
Zsolt shows F-4Gs coming over from Spangdahlem and that should fit the timeframe when the 48th swapped from F-111 to F-15Es.
 
20th TFW at Upper Heyford were F-100D/F before F-111Es and 48th TFW at Lakenheath were F-4Ds before F-111F.

Just a small point for those interested:

On the MAIW site there is an FSX sound set available for the AI F-15s that is simply amazing. Download it. You won't be sorry.

Ian McCartney and company created awesome new FSX/P3D scenery for RAF Lakenheath and Upper Heyford. While still an ACG project, RAF Lakenheath was put on hold because of possible legal issues with the MoD, great to see it got published now (downloads are available for MAIW members).

Hi,

The aircraft in your pic, are they all AI, or some static ? I just DL this scenery and all seems deserted ..... just have cars.
I found some Lakenheath AI paints by Zsolt B.at Avsim so far, but need them in FSX code as have UT2 as well.

The F-15s are AI. You need to get the JYAI F-15 models. They are available over at MAIW. While you are at it get his AI Osprey models as they are based at Mildenhall and will make the occasional visit to Lakenheath.
The models are available compiled for FSX and FS9. Just make sure you download the FSX package.

Thank-you.

I now have these, ....... but there are no AFCAD files or flight plans for RAF Lakenheath included.

Do you know where to download these, please ?

Thank-you,
