    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.

KAUG, the site of my first airplane ride. Must have been 1975-ish. When I joined the navy, I would return home on leave on those Air New England DCH-6 Twin Otters, from Boston to Augusta and back again. Loved riding in those Twin Otters, while they lasted, but even Air New England went bust not long after I joined the navy. Then it was Beech-99s from whatever airline still flew into KAUG. When I was a wee lad our house was on Sand Hill, just a couple miles from the end of runway 26. When planes would land on that runway they would pass pretty low over our house. Great memories.
