    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.

Wow. I wasn't familiar with this! Haven't had a lot of time to get very well acquainted yet, but really, wow!

Thanks to the OP for the post, otherwise I would of remained unaware!
 
Thanks for the heads up! It looks like a very well made representation of the famous swedish cold war fighter.

I met some former swedish draken pilot at the SERE C course at the Swedish ranger school for some years back and they had some very good stories about intercepting both US U-2 and SR-71 back in the days. The SR-71 guys send a plaque to the Flygflottilj and congratulating them on the intercept.. Little doubt the draken had astonishing high altitude performance.
 
Nice vid Storm and a lovely landing:encouragement:

I have my sound turned down quite low and I was impressed with how loud the soundset was on external view.. VERY loud! I remember seeing a Draken at Farnborough in the 60's and besides the impressive display.. it was memorable for how unbelievably loud it was!;)

You Brits should know the sound... it was after all a licensed Royce Rolls Avon which powered the Draken :)
