    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.

A wonderful Spitfire Mk Vb over England ...

A rather elegant aircraft, the He 177 is.

...except the nose - which looks to me like the equivalent of putting the head of a Pug on the body of a Greyhound. But beautifully modeled in CFS3 all the same.

Eric ' Winkle' Brown called it fragile...

Perhaps the final word should go to one of Britain’s top test pilots, Eric Brown, who flew an He177 that had been captured in September 1944: ‘Somehow the He177 always conveyed an impression of fragility despite its size.’ It was ‘one of the very few German aircraft of the period that I tested that I did not enjoy flying.’
 
We sure have some excellent models for CFS3 ... and more on the way. So many quality aircraft ,it's hard to choose. Life is good ! Regards,Scott
 
He177

I really liked making that plane - gunstations could be better but the pit was the place I really tried to be accurate....
 
One of my favorites of the skins John painted for that one. Glad you're enjoying it!

James, the base in the night Spitfire shot is my own rendition of Debden. Never quite finished it, but it has appeared in a few of my shots over time.
 
Great shots of the new MkV:applause: A fine looking aircraft.

@ Dan. For the upcoming TOW install, Ted has done the approach and landing lights or torch lighting for numerous RAF bases inc. Debden, as well as many Fliegerhorsten. These have only been on one runway; normally the one CFS3 always starts an aircraft on; so it seemed good to get more bases than a few with all runways lit. For the next era, some like Deelen will have all 3 lit up and taxiway lights. The Fligerhorsten all have Lorenz ILS in my missions, thanks to Steve and his multipurpose app. I have yet to investigate when ILS was used in the RAF.
