  • 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.

Good, eh?

Some recent shots, mostly in multiplayer using JoinFS.
Planes are Dino's Tomcat and T-45, as well as A2A Spitfire.

These last two shots were taken around Nice LFMN, my home town. We were going to land in Cannes-Mandelieu, a small airfield near Cannes, but while taking a screenshot at too low altitude, my prop hit the water and got bent. Engine died immediately.
Fortunately, I was very close from the airfield, and I was fast enough to regain some altitude while doing the final turn. I tried to land on the grass, as I didn't have time/inertia to line up with the runway anyways... And of course, since I had no engine anymore, the gear didn't come out completely (not enough time to "rock it to lock it" either...).

The other pilot was my younger brother. The Spit is his very first Accusim plane, and I help him to discover all the features of the plane. In some of the previous shots, we tested the high altitude flight, to show him the necessity of using the oxygen :biggrin-new: And in this last flight, I could also explain him that you need hydraulic pressure to use the gear... :dizzy:
 
Dave, great one :applause:
I'm using it with the Etendard cockpit - a little french style, but great to fly it with an alternative VC.
 
Liked the lighting at sunset with this one after a long flight.
