Yea I saw that one too. Pretty cool. I have a Bus Rescue Squad listing
setup in our app already. Got in touch with the chairman of the group that
handles AIRS.
Mentioned that if they're not gonna maintain it and are ready to hand it
off I'm very interested in absorbing it into my app. I'm currently doing
with this with the Vanagon Rescue Squad (1,300 members).
I already have about 110 shops across the country that service Buses listed
on the app. What I have is about 500 that service Vanagons so I'm going
through that list and seeing which also service Buses. Long process but
worth it.

Abel, Thank you for all your work on the Vanagon site. In answer to your
question about AIRS I think that it was last updated in 2010 so it is safe
to say it's dead. However there is a replacement site:

Already got it going....
Just need to fine tune the forms and such but its open to all bus users
now.
Currently we have a ADD SHOP button for members to submit Repair Shops
that they've used. Theres a Vanagon/Bus check box so some shops may work on
both or just one type. Thats also the form we use for Rescue Squad
signups... theres a Vanagon/Bus option there too for people to click which
theyre offering to help with..
Hoping to fine tune the app display and such soon to make it easier but
thats how its set up now...
You can find the download links on VanAlert.com

I recall there being the Aircooled Interstate Rescue Squad online but
I'm curious to see if it's still being ran and/or kept up? I've contacted
the webmaster but no word back...
Anyways... I've been running an app named VanAlert for the past couple
of months and have gotten a lot of feedback from bus guys wanting to play
too. So we just opened up the app to bus pilots as well.
We currently have a Vanagon Rescue Squad and Repair Shops listing on the
app. It's based on the users GPS so if (when) a Vanagon breaks down, you
can open the app and see what crowd sourced vanagon repair shops and rescue
squad members are near by in order to get help.
I'm creating a repair shop section and an aircooled rescue squad section
in the app for bus guys as well to utilize.
Abel.
