This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Got it Kevin, thanks for the support.
We have reached the halfway mark of $700 out of the $1400 needed.
Thanks everyone and I appreciate the support you all have shown!

Fund is now at $730. I'm going to see if I can get a loan for the remainder. I'll keep you updated on the acquisition progress.

Just sent a bit through PayPal, thanks for all the hard work on the site Scott!

Lets see where you are over the weekend. Don't bother with the loan.

Scott, I sent you a PM (unrelated) - not sure how full your inbox is. Plus it's Easter and you have more important things on your plate. Let me know when you get to it!

Well I’m a bit gobsmacked, the donations doubled the weekend and Computer is fully funded! Thank you so much for the support. This is a bright spot in a dark time so thanks to everyone who helped. I do appreciate it so much. I’ll let you all know when we’re back up and running!

Thanks everyone for the support!
The computer is ordered but due to w worldwide chip shortage it will be the beginning of May before I receive it. For now I will continue to access the site through my phone and an old Ipad (thanks Mark).
I'll let you know when the new computer arrives. The new computer will be able to handle video editing so warbirds.tv might actually get off the ground this year!

The new computer is here! I'm setting it up now and hopefully will be back up soon.
I did a dumb ass thing though and forgot to order it with a DVD drive, so software installation is sketchy right now. I have an external DVD drive... somewhere. I have surrendered my office space twice now and it's... somewhere.

Not a huge deal but a delay until I find that bugger.
However, I will be processing back e-mails and what not for awhile any way and going through the WIX posts.
Thanks again for all the support... together we will keep WIX running for ANOTHER 25 years.... feel old yet?

I have an USB DVD drive.
Different from many of my aviation books, I know exactly where it is.
If you want it, let me know.
Saludos,
Tulio

Thanks Tulio, I just ordered one (they are only $20 now, compared to my missing one which was $400)
I appreciate the offer though. Thanks for nearly 2 decades of support!

Thank you, for your hard work keeping WIX going!
