  • 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.

OT: small break just for fun....

I didn't know that walruses had such a vocal range. Woah!

Should anyone ever complain about the soundset for an aircraft in the future, I'll refer him/her to this video.
 
Ah, so THAT'S how the sound sets are done! [I had my suspicions....a fishy smell....]...;)
 
Funny stuff, YoYo! The jet sound is "as real as it gets". :mixed-smiley-010:

BTW, and OT can you tell me what the red airplane in your signature is? See below:

Didn't know a walrus could have facial expressions... The look while he/she wistles... Whahahaha!

That eagle looks like a navy fighter that forgot to lower its gear and takes the deck rim instead of a cable :D

Thanks for sharing!
 
Great videos, but it has to be said: "Top Gun Theme" is only a shadow of itself without the guitar antics of Steve Stevens. :)
 
Back to the RWD-9 for a moment,
I was just doing some research (for a possible FS competition event) and ran across what may have been the RWD-9's finest hour...

Challenge International de Tourisme 1934

From Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenge_International_de_Tourisme_1934


"The Challenge 1934 was the fourth and last FAI International Tourist Plane Contest (French: Challenge International de Tourisme), that took place between August 28 and September 16, 1934, in Warsaw, Poland. The four Challenges, from 1929 to 1934, were major aviation events in pre-war Europe. The 1934 Challenge was won by the Polish pilots, who had also won the previous year.
Their success was not only a result of their aviation skills, but also of the technical features of their Polish-designed RWD-9. Due to their victory, Poland had a right to organize the next Challenge in 1936, but it decided not to, because of financial reasons."
