From Avsim.com: It is not often that we bring particular attention to AVSIM Volunteers, but the events of the last 16 days demand that we do so. The AVSIM Editorial Staff would like to put the shine of the public spotlight on these hard working guys, so that you know the team that put the AVSIM Humpty Dumpty back together again. Matt Johnson, John Binner, Stanly Thompson-Harmon, "The Un-Named One": With their special forensics talents, AVSIM was able to restore all of the web site, all of the forums and we anticipate 90% of the library including all FSX and FS9 files. We expect to be able to serve files dating back to FS98. Thank you UNKNOWN GUY for your assistance and skills. Aerosoft Simulator? Mathijis Kok, from Aerosoft says on their forums: Following up on a topic on another part of these forums... Aerosoft is currently seriously investigating the development of a new simulator, directly aimed at replacing FSX. This project is in very early stages, far from even started. We are now talking to each other and developers we trust to come up with a project definition. With this definition we'll look at the market potential and finances, we are talking a multimillion Euro project here after all. Now the investments do not scare us but the building of a platform we can all agree on bothers us tremendously. If we get that wrong we lost even before we start. You all know that Aerosoft (and me especially) believes in working with customers... Check here [Link] for the full text. Here [Link] is also their first posing.

From the MyTrafficX Forums [Link]: After a long time, finally a second good AI traffic package for FSX has hit the market today. Flight 1 has published its long awaited Ultimate Traffic 2. Quite a while ago, Tom Main and I agreed to cooperate for the benefit of our common customers... One of the outcomes is the fact that UT2 contains some models you know already from MyTraffic, with a small subset of the paints. UT2 aim's it's models to be around the schedules they have, so it only contains those airlines that they got hands on the schedules.

You can easily create a set of schedules for those airlines that aren't part of UT2. Mile High $100 Hamburger The Hawaiian $100 Hamburger Thanks to everyone who took the time to participat
