    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 Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Enforced FS Break:-(

Hey guys
I have to take a very long break from FS. Well, a long break from pretty much everything really. It seems my tumour has re immerged, and I’m going in for emergency brain surgery yet again. There can’t be that much of it left for **** sake. Can’t say I’m looking forward to it. That’s twice now they’ve said it’s no longer operable, and twice they’ve changed their minds;-) Mmmmmm…..

This all started after our middle eastern friends left me with a tiny piece of shrapnel just behind the ear, but as ever, good old HM services won’t have it that way, as the docs can’t state categorically that’s what started it. OK, off my soap box;-)

Going in later today, so my account may appear inactive for a good few months, but I am err….. hoping to return;-)

If last time is anything to go by, I’ll have wifi in the hospital;-)

I wonderful sales and releases I’ll miss over the next few months.

I hope to return to find at least a stunning DC3, DC6, B747 ….etc ;-)

TTFN guys n gals
 
That's sad news, on one hand, but on the other hand it is amazing what medical science and care can achieve these days. So I'm pretty sure that the times never have been better as today to successfully deal with the complication you mentioned.

I heartily wish you all the best, Doug, and when you come back, I know you will be awfully busy for some time catching up with all the goodies that have been thrown in the fs-pool in the meanwhile!


Cheers,
Mark
 
Best of luck for the op, Dougal. We'll be thinking of you and hoping for total success.:ernaehrung004:
 
Many thanks guys. SERIOUSLY appreciate the words. I know there's a lot of forces and ex forces folk here, so you'll know where I'm coming from.
 
The very best of luck mate, I hope you get well as soon as possible. My thoughts are with you :encouragement:


Regards,
Ian
