I tried searching for my library uploads under my username and real name and cannot find a single one of them. I then tried to find the Air Transat A330 and Air Canada A330 that I uploaded and could not find those files. I even typed Air Canada and all I kept getting was "No results found for..." Is the file migration complete? Just wondering where my uploads have ended up. Thanks, Robert Halmich

Hi Guys - Just can't get into your new format. It seems too busy and unorganized when compared to the old one. I think somebody got you to buy into that "any change must be a good thing" thought process. How about you do one day of the old style and one day of the new style and then have your members vote on which they prefer. Pappyhep...a long time admirer

Since the latest upgrade I am now getting the following message more often than not. It took four attemopts before I could post Oops! Something went wrong! [#2001] Sorry, the server is too busy to handle your request, please try again in a moment

Contact Form Administrator Hallo I have try several times to contact a forum administrator for a problem of mine but never have received an answer. Now where the new library comes on line at the next days, It is going to be urgent if I want or in order my uploads to be synchronized with my account. Can you please give me an email address which someone will respond to my request. Thank you

Dear Avsim staff, you may want to do some of your own investigation into this http://www.virtualpilot3d.com/index2.html and make you readers aware of what certainly looks like the next reincarnation of the Flightgear scam that we've seen over the past 18 months or so. If there really were to be a brand new Flight Simulator covering the world in major detail with 25.000 airports and 200 aircraft included, AND FAA approved....... I am pretty sure you and me would know about it ;-) Best regards, Francois

Well I like it! Also, using my ultra-highly awesome stalking skills, I now know where one AVSIM staff member lives... :crazy: :Just Kidding:

I have not been on Avsim for a while....Wow!!!! lots of new stuff to get used to.....congrats...it looks great....(once I can figure things out...:-)) Sherm

Okay, I have seen a banner on some of the staff's signatures announcing the new library. At the bottom, there is a link for registration. Does this mean I have to re-register just for the library and my current linux731 (for library) still be active, or will I only have one ID, linux731 (AVSIM) and my old linux731 (for library) will be deleted? Thanks.

Can somebody kindly explain why after I have chosen to Unfollow a Topic, it still shows up in My Content with all the latest posts? Or how I can delete posts from My Content that I have no further interests in following? Thanks.

Why are we only allowed 1 image on our AVSIM Signatures? I want to have my PMDG 737NGX banner and the flag of my country. What is the reason, can it not be changed to 2 images? Aaron G.

Dear Ron, At your age, I realize that you have a lot of free time on your hands. I also realize that in our experience, you will expound on just about any subject under the sun given even the slightest motivation, provocation, whim or bent, honourable or otherwise. Therefore, when it was pointed out to me that your mug shot was now sporting a personal (or possibly political) statement I could not help but comment. I hadn't noticed until that long established community member suggested you for an award of some kind. You were once offered a staff position, if memory serves, and you chose to remain a nobody. I seem to recall you were offered my former p…

I've been a member of Avsim since back in the 90's, and was very familiar with Staggerwing (his real name escapes me at the moment). Is he still around??

Why is this so tough to do on this forum, no option available, Like many I've respected, that have now left this forum, I would like to do the same, please delete my account.

My Treatment at British Virtual Airways ROUND 2 Some of you will recall that recently, I posted a message here about my treatment at BA Virtual. Some flightsim and avsim.com members and a member of the BA Board of Directors asked me to reapply to BA, assuring me that my first experience was a simple misunderstanding. Others mistakenly thought I was queue jumping, which is hard for me to comprehend, because I just wanted to keep my place in line. Because I wanted to fly David Maltby’s BAC 111 so badly, and no other VA flies her, and I had been working with a graphic artist to redevelop her paintkit, I thought I’d give it another go. On my second attempt to join …

I just purchased Prepar3D and was wondering if this simulator will be represented in the Avsim forum? (or maybe I'm just missing the forum)

Were the join dates turned off on the post profiles?

I just thought I'd let the membership know that as a new pilot in real life, I thought it would be interesting to join a good VA and have some fun, and maybe learn a few things. I've been simming for 20 years, so this was a natural extension of the hobby. After a lot of research, British Airways VA looked good. They are a Vatsim partner, been around awhile, and they let you fly my beloved freeware David Maltby BAC 1-11. When I applied, I learned that there is a waiting list. I asked how long it would take, the reply was a week or two as people leave, because they have a membership cap. Well, almost 3 weeks later, I had risen to the mighty ranking of 47th on their li…

I don’t know if this post will be deleted, but in any case I would simply know the opinions about some recent facts happened here. As several users already noticed, it seems that since some months the climate on AVSIM is changing. The two most evident phenomena in my opinion are the management of the MS Flight forum and the questions about Prepar3D. Let’s go in order. The Flight forum. Recently Arwen has been forced to resign as moderator because, by using her words, she intended the place as a discussion forum and not as a fan club, where only praises of the game are allowed. Some Flight lovers attacked her repeatedly, and the results have been very fast. First, …

Forum Readers, You may have noticed an increase in double, triple or sometimes even more posting of a single topic. This is mostly accidental (I hope...) and here is how to AVOID the issue until we iron the kinks out. When posting a new topic or a reply, NEVER hit Post more than once! If you click Post and you don't see anything happening, so long as you have an internet connection, I can almost guarantee that post went through. The problem we're facing is most readers won't realize the post actually sent, and they'll keep hitting Post. For this reason, we don't blame you for that logic. But until it's worked out, please just be cognizant of the issue. Th…

The front page appears disorganized. It seems to be a simple time line of things as they come in to you. I thought a proper frontpage should have specific areas for items of importance and common interest. It is just a jumble of "stuff" that has no order and no delineation as to date published. It is very unfortunate that the person who made the decision was compelled by unknown forces to do so. A bad decision.

I would like to an email to an author named Evaggelos Kaglis, who made some beaudifull repaints of Olympic PMDG, in order to ask him if he can make a special repaint of Olympic. How can I ask it? Friently, Stavros Palatsidis

Request - Scrolling Library News Message At Front Page Hi all I think it's a good idea, a scrolling message with the daily library additions at the front page. Thanks

Recently I've noticed an increasing number of duplicate (and even triplicate) posts. the sdoftware used to prevent this being done inadvertently. Has there been some change?

JF's English Electric Lightning is referred to as a 'Lightening' in the headline for this piece. Al
