  • 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.

Re: the wild behavior on the ramp during startup - the 3-4-2-1 sequence takes care of that. Thanks for the tip.

GrandPrix's done and dusted.... looks like it's time to have a stab at 'Waddy's' ...;)

The B-29 engine start up process from cold dark cockpit must be followed to the letter according to the reference start up procedures found under Aircraft _ Kneeboard _ CHECKLIST.

Also make sure each mag switch is put in the "both" position before you turn on the Master Ignition switch.
 
Been a bit 'busy' in real life [tm] .....stuff got in the way so have been unable to get back into the 29s paintings......yet

A link which explains the delay....
