IMPORTANT INFORMATION - ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ
Due to an increase in the number of new members who are trying to systematically download our entire Resource Library (one new member yesterday tried to download 3,000+ files AT ONCE!) we are being forced to implement some changes regarding who can download what, how many files at a time and at what speed. As the forums and Resource Library share the same bandwidth when the Library gets overloaded with demand like that the forums fall over, as we have all seen recently. It's sad that greed has forced our hand in this way but we must do something for the benefit of all our legitimate members (many of whom paid money for the upkeep of the site) and to prevent the files stored here being used for nefarious purposes. Many of our uploads have specific conditions tied to them that forbid uploading to any other site or deny uploading to any site that has a 'paywall' (i.e. a pay to download policy). Due to the number of mass download attempts recently we can only assume that somebody, somewhere, is attempting to stock up a new file library with our files and we owe it to our up-loaders to protect their files and intellectual property especially as many (like my own LDR Development projects) are made available at SOH only and are specified as such in the 'read me' files.The forums and Resource Library will be taken offline as of 13:00 EDT with the forums coming back online shortly after without the resources library while we work on setting up permissions on the new Library module.
We hope our members understand why we need to do this and will bear with us while we implement the changes.
Thanks in anticipation, SOH ADMINISTRATION
Downloads are now active. You may proceed with downloading as desired
The download limits are a work in progress. Some settings are likely to need tweaking in the coming days.

We flew on to Launceston (YMLT) via YWYY on the coast. Did some cruising along the coast, checked out the sights, then turned inland and followed a river to Launceston. Great flight!

Hello all,Rgr. it was a nice and fun flight as noted by Willy. The Staggerwing that I started to fly all the electrical components just didn't work correct. As usual, Dudley came to the rescue with a Cessna 337 a nice flyer. Here are three pictures that Dudley took as I was learning to fly the 337
Tasmania has been a warship spotting zone for me. Last night it was a Japanese carrier (I think probably Shinano). My first attempt to land ended badly as I rolled off the side of the deck as I wasn't properly lined up. Then to add salt to the wound, the ship ran over the CDM in the water. 2nd try was much better as I got a good landing on the deck, but with no hook, I had no way to stop so I kept my speed up and went full throttle just before I ran out of deck. At that point I realized I needed to catch back up to the group, but now I know where to look for it.

Hi All, 
got a late start do to some serious engine problems, got them fix and now in a hurry to catch up with the rest of Flight 19. Had some shabby weather on the first part of the flight and then it cleared up just before I started down, hehe, if I have to say myself, I made a nice landing. After we touch down Old Dudley open his eyes. No fate that fellow. hehe.

Hate to hear about the loss of life Pat.
Had to unload the O-2 as the local authorities didn't like the idea of someone flying about with rockets and mini guns and it took a few days to get out of their clutches. Got a good trade in deal on a cream puff "civvie" CDM though.

Hi everybody,
Hehe, long time no see! But been busy, but the truth is I keep forgetting to take pictures of our flights. On one flight we had some great conversation concerning the land of OZ from MM who had spent some enjoyable time there. Heck, I thought most of Australia was desert for the most part. Sure is some pretty and mountainous country there. Well, that is what these flight are for to learn about different places.
