    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • Special Server Maintenance

    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.

OT: What's your desktop backgroud?

I concur Tom, that rather struck me as delicious. Must be the Tom Cat in me! :icon_lol:

I also love that "Moonbeam McSwine" shot with the balloons at an airshow DD26 put up. Somebody got it all right there! :ernae:

That made me smile Mike, glad you are still enjoying the 'Swiss Miss' paint I made for her. :ernae:

This is my current background (another one of my repaints) and like many others I tend to change them out when I get bored.

WH:

My older brother owned it in the 80's. Sold it in early 90's to a gentleman in Switzerland and it came back to the states in 2004 (I think) currently owned by a museum in Virginia.(the last I knew)

Being the "kid" brother, I got to do a lot of the "grunt" work on it!! :mixedsmi: But on the "flip" side, got to travel in it a lot all over the country for airshows... :applause:

The picture that's under my name - I took from the back seat one year when we where on our way to Texas for an airshow..

A far as I know, it still has my brother's "N" number on it...

Oh yes Larry, she's my aircraft of choice and you personalized it even more.

Still can't thank you enough.

I'm with you PRB, plain and simple. A computer instructor back in the day, circa Windows 3.1, I believe, told me that if you used big, high quality pictures for your desktop that it would significantly slow down Windows load time...God knows Windows doesn't need help with that. I'm sure that's not true anymore but old habits die hard.
 
I have a wide selection of my own photo's I use as backgrounds, so I can switch often. This one's in use for quite some time though.
