    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.

The top percentage of the Navy training class were posted to fighter/attack. The last place fellow, well he had to make do with what was left.
 
Talking about fun & funny ideas for FSX, I have to propose
two more :

1. The Star Wars FSX "aircrafts" - never tested them...- Tacpacked (or even CS Weaponed), for space multiplayer battles... :biggrin-new:


And the really good one now :

2. Multiplayer (via JoinFS) Naval Battles with HMS Bounty. Preferred "cannon addon" the FSX Weapon by CS,
in Mission system for scripted damage on users ships If/When a cannon ball from another user hits them... :very_drunk:
 
That GyroDyne appears to sport a VW engine. Dating this gizmo to somewhere in the 1950s, that would be 36hp if a stocker. Great mileage though.

Back when I was a VW mechanic working at a dealership, (1978) one of my fellow mechanics built up VW's to race, He got 130 horse out of one, for one race per build. If he was lucky, and it lasted through the entire race... highly modified, and ran hot.

Not sure about the accuracy of a Fiddlers Green forum thread, but a 72hp Porsche: https://www.fiddlersgreen.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=3790

The standard stock 1959 356A had 59 hp, so that engine had to have been been souped up a little.

I owned two different Porsche 356's from a slightly later era, a 1962 356B Normal and a 1964 356C. The former had 60 BHP stock and the latter had 75 BHP stock.

I drove the 356C on sunny summer days for 20 years after restoring it and, like flying, it was pure, unadulterated joy.
