Re: Two more sleeps!
Apologies for the delay in posting pics, my computer now says DISK BOOT FAILURE no matter which sata cable or socket I use. Even tried two different SSDs, both of which have W boot on them.
I can't access my hosting site or any other of my usual tools from Mrs Airspeed's machine. Went to the tip yesterday, but no computers whatever in the skip.
If I bought a new motherboard, my "old" CPU won't plug into it, so upgrading would be costly. Waiting game......

Re: Two more sleeps!
Very sorry to read the bad news, Mike.
I use my phone for most everything now..
I turned on the gaming laptop a few weeks ago ( flirting with the idea I would get some T&G's in not having done any simming for eons) and the screen had purple ish hue.
How was the show?

Re: Two more sleeps!
Thanks for posting that, MikeW.
There were no Jindiviks at the show, but I spoke to a bloke from the Benalla Museum. They have one there, and offer flights in a Moth Minor or Winjeel, so I might visit!
Joe, Great thanks, but stinking hot and windy. Had lunch under the wing of a B52, walked inside a Kawasaki C2, and got deafened by an F35 belting around with a bunch of Super Hornets. They don't need weapons, the noise is enough.

Hopefully the winds have slowed down.

Re: Two more sleeps!
As I mentioned to Brian, my computer is working again for now.
Table is strewn with HDDs SSDs and cables, but it is going.
I've been able to resurrect the website software, and have inserted the Avalon 2019 photos.
The originals are 91.1Mb each, and the only way I could make them a reasonable size was to reduce them to 256 colours and shrink them to max 2000 pixels wide. If anyone has better ideas, PLEASE let me know.
If you'd like to see them, click on the link below, Choose Airports, airshows & fly-bys, then Avalon 2019, where there's a menu for various categories. Videos not yet uploaded.
I THINK I've discovered an improvement; leave at 16 million colours and cut the size way down:
Might have to do them all again
