    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.

Notice (My Dad/Family)

Thanks everyone. My Father passed at 11:10PM/2310hrs after a long and valiant battle with his illness and he passed very peacefully. He beat the odds and then some after being diagnosed with lung cancer in late 2007 considering the long odds on that disease and he enjoyed a good quality of life mostly since then. The cancer did eventually come back over the last months and evaded early re-detection but in the end, the cancer didn't get him, it was a virulent strain of bacterial pneumonia that he simply couldn't fight off anymore. He was a good man whom I am very proud of his many accomplishments over his 76 years and I am proud beyond words to be his son. He is at peace now and in a better place.....
 
Storm, my sincere condolences on the loss of your Dad. Prayers and good thoughts go out to you and your family.
