Anybody able to log on to/access Area 51 Sim? My browser (IE8) will not pick it up.
 
Rumor over at Hovercontrol is that they may have gone out of business.
I believe their site has been down for over a week now.
Their products are still available however through most of the distributors.
There have been no announcements over at their forum though.

Maybe they just had a server issue?

There was a while that I couldnt get onto the website, but right now its up for me.

I sure hope they didnt go out of business. They seemed to have some potential. The flight dynamics of the C5 seemed a bit weird, but I was really looking forward to their C-17 and upcoming releases they announced.
 
if the are gone out off business that would be a sad loss to the flightsim community
especially their helicopter models are great

Looks like a redesign of the site was taking place.
I see they mention the update for the C-5 cockpit.
Flight testing for the C-17 is underway.
Announced a U-2 avaiable soon as well! :jump:

Remain calm! All is well!

Doesnt look too bad. You can definitely tell its a free template and it needs a lot of work still, but who cares. I am happy to see updates on the C-17 for once.
