    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.

Dear Flight Sim Community –

It is very sad news to inform everyone that one of our very dear friends and REX team member - Rick Brown (papab) passed away.

This is a huge unexpected shock to us all and especially to his family. Rick had just retired recently. He was an amazing person to know as well as had a tremendous passion for flight simulation and the community.

This is a true loss to our REX family and we are privileged to have known him.

Our prayers go out to their family.

Sincerely,

The REX Team

Sad news, and so soon after the loss of Ian.

Rick had been a member of our testing team since the Canberra PR9, our first in-house project, and his commitment and enthusiasm were second to none. A great loss.
