    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.

Is there a link to the base model Dove yet, or is it currently a work in progress? It does look superb. Kudos Rob.

And Jan Kees, I've not found much on the Irish ones, but you could be painting this model for a while. There are so many civil and military schemes, it will be like going to a library and not knowing which book to pick first!

What is a little bit worrying is that Rob's Dove/Devon shown here in the screenshots is a DH.104-1 to possibly -v6. It is in any case not the -v7 or 8 with more powerful engines (check out the airscoop and streamlined exhaust) and raised cockpit height...

The photos of the IAC Dove above show the DeHavilland DH.104 Dove -8. Here beneath is a photo op the DH.104 -6 :

The question is the average flightsimmer will be over the moon to have this beautiful Dove to fly no matter the raised cockpit height version or not, the Dove/Devon aficionado (like myself ;-) however would love the raised cockpit version for any livery pertaining to it.

Then again this pigeon fancier(duivenmelker in Dutch) will be over the moon with any native MSFS Dove/Devon he can get his diry hands on so soit !

I was just pointing it out. ;)

Btw, there are 24 pages of Dove/Devon photos over het airliners.net comprising of almost 900 photos so have at it. :applause:
