    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.

Screenshots

Cazzie, you must have been facing west to get that shot. I know that Orion rises in the east during the winter, which is why I call it "winter's harbinger." When I can see Orion in the sky in the evening, I know that cold weather is coming.

Trying something a bit unconventional, some screenshots from VR (cropped from 3506x3814). A flight around Naples and Pompeii.




The detail/resolution is to such an extent with the photogrammetry that when flying around the excavated ruins of Pompeii you can even see the raised "crosswalk" stepping stones that the Romans placed on their streets so that when it rained and the streets got flooded you wouldn't get your feet wet.

WOW!!!
Great screenshots John!!!
 
Some screenshots around Salzburg, with the latest World Update - all new aerials and DEM, and around the city of Salzburg itself, all new photogrammetry. I uninstalled my copy of the DigitalDesign Salzburg Airport (LOWS) as the World Update includes its own detailed version (it looks very similar to the DigitalDesign version, and may very well be from the same folks).
