    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Microsoft Flight Simulator has amassed quite a number of players since its release two weeks ago.


Microsoft Flight Simulator has over 1 million unique players to date, and it is the biggest game launch in Xbox Game Pass for PC history.
Microsoft announced the feat today.


Just over two weeks ago, Microsoft Flight Simulator released, and has seen folks take over 26 million flights and log more than one billion miles. This is the equivalent of flying around the world over 40 thousand times.


More is on the way for players, with new world updates, sim updates, and future themed DLC.

Interesting information. Shows the amount of information being collected (and mined) "Azure", anyone?:mixed-smiley-010:

'Xbox' = Transitory users ......... :devilish:

Possibly true, but bottom line more is known than meets the "casual" eye. Not "sinister" on its face value, but certainly pays to understand and approach with ones "eyes wide open" (as they say)....:monkies:

I think a large percentage of that would be the "$1 for a months access" type of users.

What I'm waiting on is more of a steamcharts type of metric. EG the people who are still flying after that first month. Too early for that though.

But congratulations is due on the million players though no doubt about that.
