There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

From the ORBX forums here is JV's reply on 14 Dec (but that was 2 days ago so it may have changed since then)
"We don't announce release dates at Orbx. We were hoping for a xmas release but at this stage it's looking more like January sometime, since there's still some work to do with the seasonal colouring, traffic and also the night lighting, which I just don't see getting done in time for Santa's sleigh, sorry."

Yeah guys, we're working our little clakkers off right now to get it finished, so let's see how we go. Right now I am doing the night lighting for downtown Seattle (so many damn pedestrian crossings LOL!). Holger is still working the moving traffic and there's a bunch of night lighting tiles for Tim and I to do, plus Spring and Fall seasons to come (although Matt is close to finishing those).
Thanks John!
I normally don't ask for favors, but would it be possible to post some screenies of the Vancouver, WA area (not Vancouver BC)? Grew up there, and started my flight lessons at Evergreen Airport (unfortunately now closed) and also a bit at Pearson (KVUO).
DaveKDEN.
Did you get a chance to take lessons with Wally Olsen? He was my fathers FI at Evergreen. I would love to have his collection of airplanes in FSX: WACO UPF-7, Curtiss JN-4, WACO Cabin biplane (don't remember the model #.) and his day-to-day Champ trainer.
I was working at the liquor store across from Evergreen on the last weekend it was open. The local antique aircraft community held an impromptu fly-in, which included some nice low-level aerobatics--it was a great show and a terrific FU to the local NIMBYs who wanted another GD Pottery Barn instead of an historic airfield. BTW, Thanks to 'the Economy' there is still no Pottery Barn at the site. Just an empty field.

No, never met Wally. Did attend a Fly-in there once. Good fun to be sure. I took ground school and started flying there in the summer of 1982 (right after graduating HS). I was truly saddened when I heard Evergreen was to be closed. Yep, supposed "progress"
to put yet another business center in place of one of the neatest little airfield's ever.I worked at the B&R Ice Cream store kitty-corner to Fred Meyer's at Mill Plain and I-205. Got a job over at Montgomery Ward's at Jantzen Beach Center after starting College. Monkey Ward's is closed, but I don't know if that B&R is still open (I digress though).

The B & R is still there, but it is now in the Fred Meyer's mini-mall on Chkalov. Wards is now a Target. I am also a class of '82: Hudson's Bay.
I'm class of '82 at Fort. Small world eh? I lived in the Heights near what used to be Tower Mall. My folks still have that house, but split time between Vancouver and Phoenix.
Sure thing. Here's a few shots around Vancouver and KVUO. You need to keep in mind that Bill Womack has gone on record as doing KVUO, so that's good news for you!
We've also got some major plans for this area which we cannot announce just yet, but it will be very exciting news.Anyway, here's the shots.

Thanks, looking real nice so far.
Even has the golf course just south of the Jantzen Beach area. Can't wait for this release, and Bill's KVUO.I've actually played there a couple of times (years ago).
