    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.

Honda vetoes Alonso/Andretti Indy 500 deal

H
owever, his return last year was with a Chevy-powered McLaren entry due to the breakdown of the McLaren-Honda partnership in Formula 1, with Alonso having been very vocal about the Japanese manufacturer’s deficiencies regarding its power unit.

Apparently him working for Toyota in the WEC and Dakar was a bigger deal breaker for Honda than his GP2 engine comments..
 
Not very clever of Honda considering the big picture.
Alonso could (could) be a serious contender, I'd be interested to know if the veto is from Japan or Honda US.
Petty politics at play.
:banghead:
 
You can't really say Fernando invested in keeping a good relation with Honda :biggrin-new:.

Cheers,
Huub
