  • 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.

View attachment 48899 Where to contact Paul Foster? Have to try.
The old clangers FSX up pretty nicely. Have to run the schivitzhammer over the AEW's next.
Full range of ASW goodies, too...View attachment 48900View attachment 48901View attachment 48902View attachment 48903View attachment 48904
...for the kipper's. Mk30 torpedo, Mk101 and Mk90 NDB's, with earth-shattering kaboom. Conventional DC's, illumination flares that light stuff up, custom effects...
So, if anyone knows of Mr Foster's whereabouts, it's be copacetic to ping him.
 
Lazarus I'm pretty sure that Paul passed away a few years ago now, though i could be wrong. Many of the modifications to his models were done after his passing I don't know where you'd stand on permissions for modifying stuff like that.
(If that's wrong someone please tell me)

Hi Lazarus

I noticed an FSX rework of the Shackleton by Andiroto on Simviation. I've not tried it so I don't know if it has been done with permissions etc.
