    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.

Landclass & gsl done as far south as Ye.

Just hand-flying the (many, many) rivers to match the mesh to do.

As this would take mesome time to complete, I'm taking a bit of a break to work on some of the airstrips useful to the AVG Campaign revamp.

Found this resource online, full of useful details regarding airstrips...

Allen's upgrade of Gary Aumaugher's old ki-30 Ann, using his PSD template as a start point. My interest was "prodded" after doing some research for AVG airfields - seems 31st Sentai operated out of MaeSohn, west of Raheng.
 
Back to scenery building - this time the Loiwing area on the China - Burma border.

It seems the AVG used the Suili strip (inside China proper), whilst the RAF were left to use the less-ideally located strip at the CAMCO plant, a bit further West...

Also took the opportunity to work on Thicko's B339E Buffalo.

Reduced the shine on the model, revised the contact points & airfile (no more incessantly bobbing wingmen), & worked up a 67 sqn RAF paint, using one of Sopwith Chameleon's US Buffalo repaints as a starting point.
 





AHSeafires iic & iii
Added AH pilot from freeware AH hurri's and scasmLoDed. The realair pilots look way better, in earlier models i done.

I ended up revising the Nate airfile to make them more challenging.

6 x Ann with 2 x 4 Nate escorts vs 2 x 3 Buffaloes.

The mission was built to check out the ki30 Ann AI behaviour & try my modified Buffalo airfile, I decided the Nate needed some work after getting 4 of them in my Buffalo...

Now I can still mix it with them, but it's hard - give them a bigger numerical advantage & I'm sure I'd be quickly overwhelmed....:cower:
