    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.

Glad to see they have float/amphibian versions in the package. I remember not that long ago taking a ride on a float DHC-3T out of Juneau over the glaciers there.

Will defiantly be grabbing this one, next time Milviz has a sale.
 
That's easy dvj :

first Avro Tutor

then Boeing-Stearman

then Avro Lancaster

then Handley Page Halifax

then Lockheed T-33

then Lockheed F-104

then i'll get my umbrella

:biggrin-new:

I'll skip the Turbo Otter. I'm not sitting in that high pitched whine instead of the soothing murmur of a R-1340. Besides i've waited 10 years for a good recip Otter. Now i've got 2. :cool:

Now I know I wish it would rain down, down on me
Oh you know I wish it would rain, rain down on me now
Ooh yes I wish it would rain, down on me
Yes you know I wish it would rain, rain down on me
Just rain down on me

 
no - I can't keep up with the dollars man...Too many other obligations at the moment. They're all just eye candy behind the glass - where they will stay until or unless there is a massive fire sale
 
Well, i certainly ain't buying any FS aircraft just because it's released anymore neither (used to be my ground rule, you should see my hangars ;-) but the Otter is pretty special to me. My fav aeroplane in all FS versions before FS9. And that's how long i've been waiting for a good one (radial engine version) to appear in FS9, later FSX and P3D. So much so that last year, when still no glimpse of any Otter on the horizon, i started my own Otter project. You can imagine my ambivalent feelings when, just a few months later, i was just about finished with the external model, first AH released their Otter and shortly after that here comes Milviz with another one ! ( they must've had their radar pointed at my Max Studio.. ) To stick with the subject "when it rains it pours" both models got good wipers though. :smile:

Btw, here's a fine clip from Michael Palin's Pole to Pole adventure featuring a ride in a Turbo Otter ( he gets more and more discouraged while talking to the pilot ;-) : https://youtu.be/Zv-gyB-SG3M?t=1m53s
