    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.

Napacon Gone West

[FONT=Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I was reviewing a post started by Napacon regarding Bill and Lynn Lyons work. I don't think it was noted on the forum but Vinnie Nappi aka Napacon or Beana 51 went West this past May. He was 88 and a member of our team. As a licensed pilot he was a true supporter of vintage aviation and all things simulation. He will be missed. [/FONT]

Wow, I had no idea. A great guy who, as you said loved vintage airplanes, and reminiscing about his early days as a pilot who loved the old grass strip, out of the way airports. Many years ago he and I put together a series of airport sceneries for the airports he visited (Downsville, White Birch, SkyTop (Michael Carr), Valley View and a few others) He was thrilled and I always felt good that he was able to enjoy the past that way. RIP Vinnie!
