  • Special Server Maintenance

    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 just uploaded yet another repaint on FS.2, 'Pat' Pattle's Hurricane:

NW (00006) by JanKees Blom, on Flickr

and saw, a bit to my surprise, that I actually uploaded over a thousand repaints for MSFS on FS.2. 1035 to be exact, and since quite a few uploads contain more than 1 repaint, it's probably getting towards 1100 repaints...ridiculous! I need a break I think, and as luck would have it, I'm leaving tomorrow for three weeks in the South of France, with 43 students, so no paints for a while! If you need me, I'll be here:

So while I'm hammering rocks (Geology prof in real life), could I ask you to fill this thread with screens of your favorite paintjobs out of the 1000+? There's bound to be something for everyone...

Back in three weeks!

amazing compendium of work JanKees - I probably have that many of your paints - between FSX and MSFS
 
It is always good to disconnect from time to time but after you get back you may find you need another break. 43 students are a lot more difficult to control than repaints.
 
Here's another collection of MSFS screenshots to honour and thank JanKees for his stellar contribution to our hobby and community. This time we're looking at some of the classic De Havilland aircraft he's repainted. (This review takes place in two posts due to image upload limits).
