    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.

SOH-CM-2025
In today's development update by Microsoft, they state:

"With the release of Closed Beta, the Pre-Release Testing program is just getting started. We will have many new opportunities for pre-release testing post launch, and the team is working on finalizing our plans/timeline in order to share with you post launch."

As was also made public today, Microsoft will release various updates over time. These will include World Updates, Sim Updates and a handful of Paid DLC packages. The World Updates will be released free every 2-3 months, featuring updates to the Bing satellite/aerial imagery, photogrammetry, more hand-crafted airports, more landing challenges and more tutorials. The Sim Updates will be released free every 2-3 months as well, which will bring new features and various improvements to the sim. The Paid DLC will be for big feature addons such as helicopters, and the physics modeling to do it properly. The developers (Asobo/Microsoft) have described wanting to do quite a number of helicopters. I believe they also spoke on wanting to bring gliders into the sim too.
