    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.

NAS Cecil Field scenery in work.....

Damn, that really looks outstanding. I hope they will integrate it.

I did something similar for NAS Norfolk, to fit the MAIW scenery that was just released, but it isn't this good. Wow.
 
I now Woogey is really wanting a photoreal background . He's on vacation with family for a week , but I'll let him know to look you up . I'm the AI traffic half of our projects . Thanks for the kind words . Hope it turns out as good as it looks like it will . In the same area , we're adding some ship traffic from Mayport also . :)

This is looking nice! Back in June I have started some photoreal background, autogen and AFCAD work for Cecil after a chat with Richard (tgycgijoes). It was going to be on my to do list but Woogey and Scott will do it good justice. I'll just store this for now:









If they feel they can use what I've done I will gladly share it with them.
 
One of the pilots who gave me a ride in Phantoms (while I was at Pax River) was then Lt. Smith. Many years later, Lt. Smith became Capt. Smith, and was a pilot on the ill-fated Space Shuttle Challenger.........NC
Wow, you definitely have a unique connection there Pete. Good memories and sad ones too.

Chief - Given the many, many, very many things that can go wrong in the course of a space flight, I'm surprised that there weren't more disastrous events. Brave souls one and all!

Thanks for bringing this scenery to our attention. I'm really looking forward to it and want to thank all involved in this project. Cheers!
 
This has been quite a interesting couple of weeks. When I was initially contacted about this project being taken on, I was quite excited, and still am:jump:!


I am busy in the background of things, contacting places like the Naval History and Heritage Command (NHHC), and the Special Media Division of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

In short order, BOTH of these repositories have emailed me, offering their assistance. I did NOT expect such a quick response, but everything seems to be coming together all at once. It really amazes me
:encouragement:.

Along with all this that is happening, I have been going back and forth to the Navy Hospital and the Veteran's Clinic (right next to the NAVHOSP) for MRIs, Xrays, etc... It is a bit of a drive to both facilities, but the care I am receiving is outstanding, and the main reason we moved here two years ago.

So.....with all the medical stuff going on, the flight simulation is a welcome diversion. And ESPECIALLY since it involves a project I have wanted to see developed for many years.

Thanks go to Corvette99 and Woogey for all the hard work they are putting into this project. Your talents are both amazing and much appreciated! And Dimus, thank you for your contributions as well!!! NC

Burned Out

I am so glad that you guys are doing this. During NAS Alameda I was all excited but by the time KNGZ was finished and then with the framerate problems, I just got burned out. Dimus emailed me to let me know you guys are doing this and I hope you can use his photoreal background he really worked hard on. I will be watching this thread and silently encouraging you all. Look forward to seeing the revised NAS Alameda framerate friendly from you guys too. Keep up the great work.
 
I was going through my old development files and run into the ground work I did for Cecil. Does anyone know if Corvette and Woogey finally went through and completed this project?
