I get a broken link when I try to visit the front page. I typed in aircraftresourcecenter.com and it opened, then clicked the "Home" tab and the top and it went to arcair.com and opened, so seems to be working, but the last update I see is from December 13.

I was actually second, if you look back you nominated yourself first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But, then again, everything is subjective isn't it. Au contraire, mon frère, British cars are the MOST intelligence vehicles ever built. They know before you do when you're done driving for the day.

SBARC Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I am alive and recovering from COVID> I have been working 4 jobs / 7 days a week for a total of 105 hours a week. ARC takes 40 hours a week to do properly, so obviously there was no time to do ARC. I have dropped 2 of my jobs to free up time on the weekends. I am hoping to get back into ARC by doing an update each weekend just to keep the homepage mildly active. I lost my main job (Tour bus driver for cruise ship passengers in my city) when covid hit. I decided to take a year off when covid arrived as the dangers of covid seemed rather serious in the first year. My wife also took a year off. Obviously this didn't do our finances any good. I had covid a few weeks ago and the current variant seems quite mild. My energy levels are still a bit on the low side but I'm resting as much as I can. ARC will be back to daily updates in the future, but that won't be for a while. ARC income covers the server fees and nothing more. So any time I spend on ARC is unpaid time. I work 2 full time jobs during the week and now that I have dumped my 2 part time weekend jobs, I hope to get more rest. I am carrying around a large high interest debt that I am heavily focused on getting rid of. ARC has to be a secondary priority to that. I am hoping to upgrade both of my full time jobs to higher paying jobs in the coming months. Thanks for your patience and understanding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Cartwright Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Ditto to comments above - sorry to hear that you got COVID, and all of the hours you're putting into work, but glad to hear you've recovered and managed to get a little more free time. Please take care, and I hope things get to the point where you have more time to do what you like! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Get well Steve ... My brother and two sisters in law both had covid back in early January also, even mild its still not fun ... I think the main thing was allot of us were worried when you went dark for so long and not that you owe us an explanation but just a note to say I'm alive and kicking but ARC has to take a back seat for the time being would have eased allot of members minds ... Again, Get Well and Best Wishes to You and Yours ... -Gregg Edited May 2, 2022 by GreyGhost Quote Link to post Share on other sites
