    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.

Please post published liveries and requests here. Our incredible talent here at SOH will no doubt be the leading force producing liveries for the old girl and a convenient repository would be helpful. Please include links to published liveries.I for one would treasure some Alaska Airlines liveries and an Everts Blue Canoe (N451CE) livery. Fingers x’ed!C
 
Hallo Guys!

This is my first post here after 11 years of being a SOH member. Now I live in Switzerland and am a big fan of the DC6 and of Balair and Swissair. Now I have a paint request for PMDG DC6 FS2020. It would be very nice if my wish comes true. Here are my two wishes: (Balair HB-IBS) See the link: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforu...lightSim-Com?p=1218086&viewfull=1#post1218086 And The Swissair: https://www.airliners.net/photo/Swissair/Douglas-DC-6B/108683/L https://i.pinimg.com/originals/47/5f/77/475f776e00d6627628d0b61d02178829.jpg

Many thanks in advance for the paints...:applause:

P.S. And soory my english is not that good.
 
I would love to do a repaint or two but i am still trying to figure out the paint-kit. :dizzy:
I feel you! I have done some skins racing sims in GIMP2 but that doesn't seem to understand the layers. All the paintkit files show as single layer files for me. Almost started a Photoshop subscribtion in my lunch break but I hope I might find a different solution. What tools are you guys using?
 
Hello

For the person who makes it their business to paint the DC6 Swissair Cargo Liner HB-IBB. Here are some small paint details about the DC6 HB-IBB Cargoliner, note the cargo hatches are also labeled on the inside...

Just for Fun: The Swissair had several cargo flights to Lisbon that were loaded with soup from Knorrli. https://www.e-pics.ethz.ch/index/ethbib.bildarchiv/ETHBIB.Bildarchiv_LBS_SR12-15-172-AL_951372.html

So now I have a lot of fun actively writing with you here. :jump:

American Airlines Pax Skin

Hey Jan,

Thanks for doing these! I have about a million of your paints for FSX etc and have always appreciated your work.

If you ever get the chance, I’d love to see the passenger version of the American Airlines DC-6. I love that Orange and aluminum scheme.

Thanks for the consideration.

Mackey International Airlines would be a GREAT one to do. Famous OLD airline, eventually bought out by Eastern.

There's an American passenger paint on Flightsim.to now, but for some reason it's far more gray than silver. Really missing that shiny look that makes the classic AA scheme one of the best ever, IMHO.
