    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.

US-Bases on Emiraua Island 1944

I took my weapon armed Wildcat out hunting IJN today. a line of thunderstorms North and West of Emirau hampered my efforts. Anyone have better luck?
 
No! I had my tubby and reilable F4F out there too last night and nearly strafed my own side's ships thinking they were the enemy (NW of the island but close in)! No sign of them NW of the island about 50 miles out.

Got 'em!
After departing Emirau to the North, I joined up with the U.S.S. Hornet's tack force and brought my F6F-5 aboard to refuel and rearm.Of course I was flying VF-17s Hellcat #35 actually based aboard the Hornet.
After launching from the Hornet, I headed North at angels 5 and found the Japanese Submarine a short time later. I laid 2 500 pounders close aboard and finished her with a rocket run.
A quick return to the Hornet had me back aboard in time for dinner.
