    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.

Thanks to Craig (Full) I have Scrappy II to fly around the virutal skies of FSX. BTW....Scrappy II is an Ercoupe.:applause:

As I recently told him: I now look forward to his next releases as much as for any state-of-the-art developpers work!
Every project is better than the previous one, and thanks to Craig aviation fans have sim models of planes that would probably never have been done if it wasn't for him.

Keep baking those tasty planes, Craig! :icon30:

Craigs done an absolutely outstanding job on the camel.. After working with him on the camel and the optika and flying the heinkle and other planes, its easy to see the incredible effort he puts into what he's doing. He so totally deserves this and more recognition..

I always look forward to the next Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit outta my hat act. The vintage stuff has their own persona. And I like curvy women. :icon_lol:
 
Great interview with Craig and I can only echo the sentiments expressed. Excellent to see his talent and dedication getting the recognition it deserves.

I remember the sheer delight I felt when I found his FSX native conversion of the de Havilland DH.88 Comet racer! That turned out to be the first of many and, along with Craig's other native ports of the FS2004 vintage classics helped my complete move over to FSX. Since then I've enjoyed his superb Optica and He 51. In 2011, I had admired the replica Taube at Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre in Omaka, New Zealand and wondered whether anyone had ever modelled it for FSX but as I thought, it seemed too old and obscure. Craig released his version of the Taube a few months later.

Thanks for your dedication to the hobby Craig, and keep up the good work!

Cheers,


Ade
 
What ever happened to Craig. Last thing I saw uploaded by him was 2015 and he has let his website close and his classicwings domain expire. Hopefully he just burned out on flight simming and went on to other hobby's.

He certainly produced some great models, my favorites are probably his Camel and his He-51.
