    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.

What a concise and fascinating summary!
Thank you.
Our "local" P-51 ZK-TAF is just painted silver all over, lazy blighters :)
It never occurred to me that the rudder was fabric, but checking the list video I took, sure enough.
Would've been an interesting sum for the designers: more filler, better aero, but more weight!

That Texan/Harvard with this repaint from @ferondoe is a favourite!

Question: What about a tad more war-weariness and grime like mud or oil? After all only a chosen few runways were hard surfaced and even then the parking spots were in the woods.
I understand what you mean but the funny thing is: I removed some of the weathering from this one. :)
I asumed that this Kurfurst wasn't that old and it was Maj. Wilhelm Batz his personal mount, and II./JG 52 didn't fly any combat sorties at all at Zeltweg, so it wouldn't be that dirty.

You got me then: You're right - there's a time for everything
Funny thing: M$ made it a point to show of the mud/dirt effects your mount is collecting in -24 so it doesn't have to come from painters anymore
 
Rare bird: The ROK Air Force Buhwal-ho, an observation plane that was the first domestically designed aircraft in South Korea. Unique tailwheel arrangement, that's for sure. Looks great outside and flies well, dunno if the panel looked that rough in the real plane or not. But I do love it when people let us recreate literally unique aviation history in the sim.
