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.
- 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.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- 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.
Ah....'Benny Scott'....

Loved the F5000 era, been scanning my way through many Tasman Cup rounds that were run under the Formula.
Actually, Aussies being Aussies, it was decided that 'F5000' needed to be tweaked to become 'ANF1', so we had pushrod production derived 5.0L engines, 3.0L OHC production engines and full blown 2.0L racing engines.
REPCO and Chevrolet were the mainstay of the big boys (Fords were rubbish) and the only 3.0L car I ever came across was an F1 Brabham powered by a Porsche 930, while Merv Wagot's brilliant alloy 2.0L and assorted Ford BDA and FVA fours slugged out the small class.
Australian GP 1975 here, no apologies for the scratchy negatives, they've been 'in transit' for decades!
Actually IIRC this is from 1972, Chris Amon struggling with the appalling Lotus 70.
