    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.

Important Rule For Anyone Who Wants To Do Polar Crossing

Aharon

Members +
Shalom and greetings all my pals,

If any of you want to do North Pole crossing by flying propeller plane or historic jet from Europe to cross North Pole to refueling stopover at PANC Anchorage on way to final destination in any city in Japan, you need to prepare for possibility of an emergency landing in Arctic Circle.

You are required to have in your plane extra emergency supplies such as parka coats, extra food, and extra water.

More important is you need to train your stewardresses how to use submarine guns. Oh yes it is must in case you encounter polar bears in Alaska or communist soldiers if you drift into Soviet Union or North Korea air space by mistake and wind up being forced down.

Here is example of how KlM airline prepared for any emergency during North Pole crossing between Europe and Japan. Notice how heavily armed the KlM stewardesses were.
