    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.

This is a fictional paint Of CF-OKS (OKANAGAN HELICOPTERS) if it was converted to a Shortsky. This is what it might possibly look like, within the limitations of the Vertavia Seaking paint kit.

The Company Started in 1947 with one, 2 seater helicopter, a Bell 47-B3, CF-FZX, and 3 employees.

Carl Agar, ex RCAF flight instructor, Alfred “Alf” Stringer, a 25 year old airplane mechanic, ex RCAF, and Arnold “Barney” Bent, ex RCAF flight Instructor, started the Company.

Started as a Crop Dusting Operation in Penticton.

Company name Okanagan Air Services Ltd.

By Dec 1958 they had 54 helicopters.

By the 70's they became one of the worlds largest Companies and operated aound the globe.

I was fortunate enough to be employed by them for many enjoyable years.

Thanks to Jeff Robinson for his assistance in these paints.
