Aside from the painfully slow loading, the Forum seems to have lost something. It used to be a vibrant place with dozens of posts each day, now it seems to be withering away with people no longer posting updates as regularly 🙁
…this is very much my observation as well. Numerous people have already voted with their feet. Posting messages has become a pain… 😡
Visitor counts are also plummeting.
that forum software issues can rapidly kill a forum.
I’ve seen it happen before, and it seems to be happening before our eyes now.
A B-52 crew performing a low level flyby of a ground-based radar scoring site in preparation for SAC’s Bomb Comp 1991.
Yours truly was aboard on this particular day as part of a 1st Combat Evaluation Group (CEVG) sortie to calibrate the bomb scoring radar at the site.
This job is just plain fun. I had a friend with a video camera at the site to record the action.
It was a very windy day at this site in West Texas.
The airplane was crabbing into the wind quite a bit.
That made it a lot more difficult to fly the correct path over the site.
Also, cameo appearances by the FB-111 and B-1 bombers.
The FB-111 pilot had a right seater from the Wing with him, so he couldn’t show us quite so much of what the airplane can do.
Too bad, because the FB-111 at low level is such a great sight.
The B-1 guys, well…who knows. I think the pilot was just demonstrating the “by the book” method.

A pair of the Bangladesh Air Force F-7BGI fighter jets performed extreme low flying maneuver in the Kurmitola Air Base last week.
Here is the video of that ultimate low pass.
I was also prevented from logon by the “database error” message, so I guess others were also.
Yes, ditto for me, was corrected in about 24 hours or so.
But so far it has remained a challenge actually posting contributions .
Now I have a second window/tab page open when posting….
