Is everyone else unable to access AVSIM?
A few years ago AVSIN was attacked. I wonder what is going on now...

Word has it that they had a major hardware failure. Forums will be down for unspecified amount of time. Libraries still work ( i use the term "work" lightly).

I felt bad for AVsim when they lost everything due to a huge hack. Problem is they never got their act back together properly. I haven't actually given up on them entirely. Still have an account, but there's nothing there for me I can't get here on Simv.

Same problem here... :( ...!

I've been a member of Avsim and Flightsim for many years, and I find them useful for obtaining regular sim flying information, in addition to our own Simviation.

A bit of a shame. I hope they can get to problem sorted out soon.

Another of my favourite Sites; "Worlds Serious Pilot" (WSP) has been gone for a long time now. It was ideal for Multiplayer flights, with its three separate Multiplayer Servers (23456, 23457, 23458.).
