The AvSim site is suffering from lack of support and lack of interest. Unfortunately, the Flight Simulator hobby in the US is slowly but surely shutting down. The lack of forward Flight Simulator support by Microsoft is the last straw.
There are some die hard contributors, but overall there are less than half the folks in the hobby in the US than just two years ago. It is holding on a bit better in Europe but no so in the US. They need new blood to keep it going. Bill Womack is just such a person but they need 30,000 Bill Womacks to have the hobby thrive.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
I guess the site has been taken down permanently:<o:p></o:p>
