  • 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.

'Audi Buys Ducati Motorcycles'

That's quite shocking, actually.
Are there any surviving Italian independents, other than the Mafia?
 
Not that surprising; Ducati has huge debts and Audi wants to compete with BMW. Alfa Romeo might be next on the VAG purchase list..

I always said the only bike I would want if I would get a licence would be a Ducati, which is exactly why I never got my licence.. :icon_lol:
 
Good thing I own the only Ducatis I ever wanted.
I suppose we should be thankful, at least Ducati might survive to be run by a more conservative management group.
Hopefully VAG realise that diluting the product line would kill the Marque stone dead.
:kilroy:

In fairness to Audi, Lamborghini has never been better, since they took over.
Italian design flair and German production engineering, perhaps a winning combination.
