• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Oh botheration.

Looked in on AvHistory tonight and saw a ghastly sight: "NOTICE: This domain name expired on 11/02/2010 and is pending renewal or deletion" plus a heap of trashy adverts.

Sic transit gloria mundi. :banghead:
 
oh no!!!......I'll donate to the site to maintain......I think they had a "donate" button which I never pushed to my eternal discredit....but it always "just seemed to be there"....like a rock of Gibraltar......AvHistory falls into the must be maintained category....right gents????

yeah.....looked...it's appalling!!
 
AARGHHH!!!

This is terrible!!! I was just there a week or so ago and there was no indication that there was a problem.

Is there any way to get in touch with one or another of the admins over there to see if there's anything we can do?
 
Mmmm., I think it was inevitable. Didn't the team move off onto new pastures and they left the site up but unattended. But then I think Griz amongst others grabbed most of what was there.
 
Yea another one Bites the dust..

BUMMER, since the early days of CFS, I have enjoyed the Work done by the AV team..

It is a sad day in CFS3..
Really sorry to see this..

Goodbye to some great folks whom have enriched my life for many years..

Is there anyone here who has the zip file for this .exe program? I'd like to keep o copy just in case I need to reboot. Its a tragedy about AVH, I just came from there. I hope Bear and the others can get it back up somewhere else maybe.
 
So sad for us,...we Band-of-Brothers. :salute::kilroy::salute:

Sad indeed Wyld45

Me and the Bear go back a long time. When MAW first came out he sent me an installation CD. Hope he's OK.:salute:
 
The pages turn.

As you say, I hope they're both OK and simply taking a well-earned break from flight simulation, whatever the platform.
 
Yes it is sad we have lost this wonderfull site.
Could the files from AVH be uploaded in the warbird's archives?
 
This is real bad news. i remember spending a good portion of a day back when they started doing the v4 aircraft downloading everything they had on that site ........ just looked for any of it and with sad news i no longer have any, that must have been one of my hard drive deaths that took them many moons ago :-(

I agree, we should upload those we do have - but they'd need to be put in a special file section, I think, to keep things orderly. Between us I expect we have a lot more than you might think.
 
be happy to add any that I have...lots in the games....used to keep the entire collection on a drive but the AvHistory site was so enduring....archive files, new files...I re-purposed the drive....more the fool I.....
 
I believe that I have everything that was on the site in a dedicated HD file....

Uploading would just take time...

I have everything CFS3 form AVHistory up 1945 hrs on 02/14/2010, I'd be more than happy to contribute to the preservation of the files. CAD
 
I also have all the AVHistory files including the older models for CFS3..
I hope we are allowed to upload this..
I would Help as needed in this process..
It is a true Loss for all Now the AVH is now offline..

AV History Preservation

Hey guys, as soon as we have permission to do so,I would like to very much put up
what I have on my site.(even if its just Texture and Effects files). I do have quite a
few of the planes,(especially the B-17s) and would also be honored if allowed to create
a special page just for AV History stuff. Sadly,another "Bookmark" and "Link" that I now
have to delete!
