  • 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.

Sorry, here are some more. Kansas City to Aspen. Planned to come in with the Glideslope to Runway 15, but with the wind pretty much coming from that end, ATC wanted me to do a visual approach to the 33. Came in pretty much right over the mountain you can see in the second to last shot. Flaps full out, gear down to maintain speed, had to cut engines to idle before dropping and still accelerated to over 150mp/h. Might have been slightly uncomfortable for the pax in the back. Afterwards I found out I maybe should have done a circling approach for the visual as well. Would be very narrow for something as big as the DC-6, though. I guess taking the plane there might not have been as realistic as I thought it'd be. Plenty fun, though.

Hi Mr. Muguel,
I have followed your flights with the DC-6 with interest.
Is the Western texture used in the last serie available somewhere?
I have never seen it before.
