    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.

I came here for Vulcans and I was not disappointed.

However, what I wasn't expecting was Jankees making me consider violating my "absolutely no portovers" rule.

Downloading this now... I wondered if someone would take on this special colour scheme. I encourage you to do the same when the Blackbird Simulations (Milviz) CT-156 Harvard 2 comes out. Till then, this will be great to fly across the prairies!Thank you - Kenneth
 
Harvard Formation

OK, so I missed the fact that the Sabre already had Canadian colours... Hmmm, adjust glasses, wipe egg off them, and delete the posts that make you look like a twit! LOL.

SO, to make up, let's take a flight out of CFB Moose Jaw, and honour the Harvard both old and new. These current MSFS models are both Texans, but they are as near as we have at the time of this post. As an aside, I got to fly in Harvard "46" 29 years ago, and just missed a flight in the CT-156 as a journalist about 11 years ago. Anyway, to the screenshots....

Hi Jan

Thanks my friend. I looked at it in passing, but did not really spend much time using it. But since you have asked, I will check it out more deliberately and see what I think..

Don't you just love a screenshot that tells a story, and so much more.
Great work, Sir.
 
F-86 RCAF 417@ CYVR by Doug Smith, on Flickr

I've been trying to figure out how to get the included RCAF liveries to show, I just figured it out tonight. This great exterior model needs a Goldenhawks livery! I'll see what I can do.

What did you do to get the extra liveries to show up? I tried editing the aircraft.cfg to removed the "Disabled" in the model line, but that alone did not work. I also tried simply changing the texture line to refer to a Canadian texture set, and while I could look out the VC and see the Canadian wings, the outside view was checkerboard patterns across the whole aircraft. - Kenneth
