    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.

Screenshots

I heard the song "American Pie" again today, and being a Buddy Holly fan anyway, I thought I would do a flight from Mason City, near Clear Lake, and fly out over/near the famous Surf Ballroom. I also flew out over the field where the memorial is located near the location where the plane went down in 1959, but I didn't think it was right to take/post screenshots of that. From that experience, seeing how close the location was to that of the airport, I felt an even greater sense of the tragidy/just shouldn't have happened.

I really like this paint scheme on the Pitts (available from MSFSAddons.org - reminds me a bit of Kessler's DR.1 in "The Great Waldo Pepper")



The arrow points to the Surf Ballroom.



Just a couple "air-to-air" screenshots I Liked.



 
Can anyone get some shots around KILG/New Castle County (Wilmington, Delaware) and surrounding areas including the Delaware Memorial Bridge? I live near these 2 places and they were represented badly in previous versions of MSFS and XP.

Terrific shots! The one with the cirrus in the NW corner is perfect! I was up in DLH this morning and it was very foggy....almost overcast till I got down past Forest Lake.
 
My flightsimming days are over. This sim is so real, I just got a call from the FAA. Licence suspended.

Besides the undulating runways, I think this is brilliant. A runway stuck out like a sore thumb FSX/P3D.

I know we've come to expect this detail in the very best payware aircraft for P3D/FSX, but here it is in every one of the default aircraft, inside and out.
