John,
Apparently, yes. I just opened it and Mike Potter's carrier plane is the front page highlight.

Hi John,

I just tried and it would not open for me either. I'm using Windows Explorer on my desktop pc. I also tried on my Nokia Lumia phone and no luck either, so I guess that something is not working.

John:

Works for me, now.  Sometimes the Internet forgets what's out there (the technical term to start searching on is "domain name service"), then figures it out again.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

I went to my bookmark, and it (www.flyinglines.org)  wouldn't open. Probably should blame it on Billy Gates and his band of rascals, at least until someone else comes along to take the fall.  VD~ Steve

Ok. I just cricked (sic) on the link in my post above, and FL opened almost instantly. I'm thinkin' that it was John Thompson or his crew of leprechauns working on the website, since JT works night shift at the newspaper. I'm not sure how real websites do it, but when I did the NW Skyraider's website (shockingly small number of kilobytes for about 5 pages of content), doing the FTP would make the change pretty much instantaneous, complete with any errors. Doing the corrections (from proof reading, imagine that!), was equally impressive.

I expect FL is a relatively large number of kb's, and the updating would take awhile. Or maybe there's an update to the software with some extra bells (or whistles) for some software engineer's perceived improvement (keep changing it until it doesn't work).   :o  Steve

PS: Mike Potter's Seafire sure looks close to that tree. NO CL model airplane has ever hit a tree at Delta Park. According to some.  ;)
