    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.

Who Killed WW1 Top Ace The Red Baron?

In WW1, the top fighter pilot Ace, with 80 kills/victories, was Germany’s Manfred von Richthofen, The Red Baron. He was finally shot down & killed, in his bright red Fokker Triplane, but who did it was debated until 1969. Even now, there may well be ongoing differences of opinion!. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

 
Been to that museum, really fun, and there are nearby wineries. My first big airplane I flew was the F-27.
 
I've always had questions.... but in a news clip in a national Australian newspaper "The Sun " in the early 90's, there was an article of an old digger who said on his death bed, how the red baron was still alive when he crashed and how they aparently killed him by bayonet while still in his plane,he said it was most shameful act he and other done.... did anybody else come across this article?

I've never come aross what i read ever again.
