  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

This is John Stinstroms excellent rendition of this south Texas Pilot Training base for FS9. My part in this is to simply convert it to work in FSX and P3D. I have emailed John for permission to upload once it's done. Still some small stuff to complete.

A great spot to park a BT-13, AT-6, PT-13, AT-9, training B-17s or B-24s, AT-11, or any other AF trainer, prop or jet. Looking forward to this one very much.

That would be great, Ed! I like the way the base was designed. Interesting. Re: John Stinstrom; I tried several times to get in touch with him over the years, and was never successful. Pete

Good to know Pete. I'll give it some time, unless someone else happens to have a better way to contact him. If I get no answer within the week I'll make sure his original readme's are included along with information on this current version and get it uploaded.
 
Great to see the scenery getting converted for FSX/P3D. Another base I've been to and my MAIW trainers need a good home.

Ed, John was, I think, involved with some of MAIW projects a couple years ago, so maybe someone on their forums may know how to contact him. Pete
 
I spent about a month there for KC-97 crew training back in "the dark ages". Lovely place for flying although we had no GPS, no ILS, no VOR, etc.
 
I went on to other projects while trying to get in touch with John to get proper permission to release his scenery. I failed with several email addresses and attempted to contact him through MAIW but with no success thus far. I will give this last attempt a day to work and then I plan on giving John his due credit for the marvelous job and upload it to the Warbirds library.

Well Ed, indeed you tried. I (we) look forward to your release! NC
 
Well, the consensus at MAIW is that John left the hobby and no one has had contact with him in quite a few years. I will get the scenery uploaded soon.
