CptTroll,
The logo art is available as a zipped package, which I will send you the link to.
Thank You. Glad you like your new AirPark home.

Sir,
I have just visited my CYXQ home and It's absolutely great Joel! Thank you very, very much.
The signage is very apt and space layout is perfect. I'll have to get my CMO "Ol' Salty" on the next available flight out of Red Lake. He'll be a little cranky but I know he's going to like our new digs, although I know he'll never admit it. I took a snapshot of my Beaver in its temporary livery by my sign and sent it off to him along with his plane ticket. I'll have to make sure to get a case of his favourite lubricant before he arrives or he will be absolutely intolerable. Ol' Salty is a great aircraft mechanic but he is like a finely tuned engine... he needs to be well "oiled".

While I think of it, is the EPOCH AA logo art available in an AI or Photoshop format? And if so, may I have a copy as I would like to put the logo on my aircraft.

Respectfully yours,
Cpt Troll/Tim

And a pleasure to make your acquaintance as well sir.

Downsview, for me, was a magical place. I accompanied my father-in-law to the DHC family day gathering once or twice. It was like being a kid in a candy store as I got to meet interesting people and poke around all sorts of different planes. One time I met George Neal DHC's chief test pilot. He flew in his vintage Tiger Moth for the day... what a beauty she was.
Cheers, Tim

Sounds very much like the Story of naming of John Dunbar by the Lakota Sioux to "Dances With Wolves".
I see we have another thing in common, I spent many years studying the martial arts and Tia Chi.

Thank you bc for the warm welcome. I already feel quite at home. I'm thinking it will take some time to get to know and understand how everything works around here and I'm looking forward to doing so.
On an earlier post you mentioned you would like to hear more about my connection to DeHavilland Canada. The link is through my dear father-in-law Peter Adams. Peter was a bomber pilot for the RAF during WWII and continued his flying career in the civilian world. He moved with his family to Toronto in the early 60s and eventually found a position with DeHavilland Canada. As a sales manager, he demonstrated and sold Otters, Twin Otters, Turbo Beavers, Buffalo and Caribou to governments and military concerns throughout the "Far East". I have many fond memories of discussions we had about the various DHC products and he was instrumental in getting me the specs and info I needed to build my first PlaneMaker version of the DHC-2. He also taught me the basics of flying using X-Plane. He taught me how to use the instruments and had me under the hood for many hours of training... I miss him very much.

A good place to start for resources is in the Downloads and EPOCH AA VA areas, found in the tabs at the top nav bar.

For working the VA (as it is right now anyhow) and keeping in with the activity, help and all other Forum stuff, you might want to get started in the Forum/General Discussion/Newbees start here section please.


codetrucker... I shall PM this to you as well.

Thanks BC! FYI - I am somewhat lost. If there is an orientation area or a new recruit depot, I missed it. Could you give me a shove in the right direction please?

...and now I remind ottopilot9, almost exactly one year later than his comment here, what an integral and valued contributor he is here at uX-Pa and EPOCH. So perhaps we can dispense with anything other than...
"We sure know how to make all of us feel great" :D

Real nice job you've done here Joel. You sure know how to make a guy feel inadequate :)
