    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.

Any Interest in a New SOH Project - F7F-1

I'm a huge F7F fan. I was very disappointed when the F7F faded off Vertigo Studio's FSX to do list. This project is great news.

The best reference on the F7F I've come across is Naval Fighters #75 by Corky Meyer & Steve Ginter ISBN 0-942612-75-2.

It has 177 pages with very detailed photos & technical drawings including lots of cockpit shots. Corky Meyer was the Grumman project test pilot for the F7F and there are lots of stories that include handling details.

Thank you for recommending this book by Meyer and Ginter. Just received it today and it is awesome in its detail and explanations of everything important to modeling. :applause:
