Forums Collapse
On January 17, 2008, the servers hosting the forums crashed, and the owner, Chris Kilroy, stated on a temporary page on the site that he did not intend to reopen the forum portions of the website. Instead of starting the forums back up, users have been urged to take part of the Aviation Safety discussion forums at the sister site of AirDisaster.com, Jetphotos.net. The current forums link on AirDisaster.com points to the Jetphotos.net forums. As a result, an influx of new users have signed up on Jetphotos.net, referring to themselves as 'refugees' from AD.com. New alternatives to AD.com have also been created, and lately many of these "refugees" have resigned from Jetphotos.net and joined two other sites, the AirDisaster Unofficial Forums and From the Flightdeck and now since February, 1st the new improved Airdisaster Info is officially working also.

Famous quotes containing the word collapse:
“I confidently predict the collapse of capitalism and the beginning of history. Something will go wrong in the machinery that converts money into money, the banking system will collapse totally, and we will be left having to barter to stay alive. Those who can dig in their garden will have a better chance than the rest. I’ll be all right; I’ve got a few veg.”
—Margaret Drabble (b. 1939)
