    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.

Cubi Point/Subic Bay

I am working on a scenery for Cubi PT/ Subic Bay in the Vietnam era. My problem is this: I am having trouble locating good quality overhead photos for building placement. If anybody has any overhead photos from say 65 to 75, I would appreciate the help.

I am working on a scenery for Cubi PT/ Subic Bay in the Vietnam era. My problem is this: I am having trouble locating good quality overhead photos for building placement. If anybody has any overhead photos from say 65 to 75, I would appreciate the help.

I remember a few years ago when the Navy pulled out of the Philippines a large article in TAILHOOK magazine. Contact the Tailhook Association online and tell them what you are doing. Post in the Skyhawk Association online site as well. I would also contact the National Archives and Record Service in Washington. They have tons of photos though it takes a long time for them to reply. In the past they would supply photocopies of what they had for you to choose and they were good enough to use.

I spent a lot of time there but was too busy on liberty to take many pictures and never overflew the island so no overhead shots. Is everything gone that Google Earth is no good to use?
 
Thanks for the info. I too was there on Liberty, but taking pictures was the last thing on my mind!:adoration:
