  • 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.

Don't know how these will load. Flying the 1932 Bendix Trophy Race in the Grumman F3F-2 by AH. My appreciation to Jankees for the Marine Fighting Squadron paints.

How did you go?:engel016:

I only got started yesterday and will have to do it in jumps because of work unfortunately. So I’m pretty sure I won’t be winning! 😂

This leg was just a warmup between Burbank, CA and Lake Havasu, AZ. I don’t think the Barrel has much in the way of navigation equipment, so I’m just Dead Reckoning there. I’ll need to perhaps do a more thorough job of flight planning when I don’t have something like the Colorado to catch me!

Great shot, Zsolt! Too bad that despite the many possible liveries, this version of the Starfighter seems to have been almost ignored by the repainter community ...
 
Yes, 26 repaint. For the TF at least we got to 67 .

it came with 27 textures and there are 26 repaints (ignored, I did 12?) and you are complaining it's not enough?

OK, one more then:

If only I had the ability to make them myself.... :(

Oh, but you have, you're just not aware of it. The F-104 is actually much easier to repaint than most other aircraft. All you need is photoshop/gimp and a bit of time to figure out how it is done. Give it a try, you might actually succeed, and I'm always willing to help.
Heck, even I can do it, and I have a very busy full-time next to it.
