    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.

F7F-300 question

Hello all, and Mr. Shupe in particular :)
I just found a recent release of an F7F-300 on Simviation. Looks great, too!
In the readme, it says
"Original aircraft design by Milton Shupe"
and
"VC Adaptation, panels and gauges by Philippe Wallaert"
Wonderful looking aircraft, really it is. My question, if I may: Is this F7F-300 qualified for the RTWR Whitelist, or has it been changed significantly, and is thus no longer Whitelist qualified?

Either way, many thanks to Mr. Shupe for the original, which I love to fly even when NOT in the Race, and to Mr. Wallaert for all the great work he's put into this wonderful version.
Good fortune, and enjoyable flights to all!

Hi Pat,

Thanks. I really do not know as I was unaware of the version and do not usually check out changes made by others.

I would say, go ahead and enjoy it and fly the original in the race.

Also, the -300 version that was rushed to completion for the race is not the latest version available as an FSX port over, and of course you have Gordon's beautiful FSX native renditions available as well.
 
Thank you, Mr. Shupe, sir :)

That's exactly what I needed to know. I will certainly enjoy the bird, but only use the version(s) you specifically put out only for the Race.
I may even try to do some CQ's, we'll see :encouragement:

Have fun all!
Pat☺
