    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.

I've just purchased it through ORBX, having been looking forward to this since it was originally announced last year. Just a friendly reminder - if you have the freeware Biggin Hill scenery installed, you'll of course want to make sure you remove it.

Just a few quick images I've taken this evening. The Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar is sometimes now referred to as the "Spitfire factory", for the number of Spitfire restorations it has completed and is currently working on (I forget just how many Spitfires they've completed to-date, and I believe they have something like as many as six or seven in various stages of restoration at this time). In addition, they operate a fleet of Spitfires, as well as a Hawker Hurricane, Piper L-4, and they house an airworthy Bf 109E. A very storied and historic airfield, with a neat mix of old and new.
