Is Captain Sim gone??

Recommended Posts

Last night, (about 2AM EST) I was reading CS's forum when a message thread popped up titled "Closed for Business" don't know who posted it. The very next screen went blank, and it still that way!!


Thanks

You gotta be kidding. The site is definitely down. It can't be, can it?

I can confirm that here as well...Perhaps they have folded? Perhaps they decided to do a runner... I also feel for all those waiting on the additional "blocks" of the 757 project...Why do I have this gut feeling that the project will never really come to fruition? Just a load of hot air again? I agree: Wilco/FeelThere and PSS, CS was added to that list shortly after their 757 was released...Andrew

Don't tease me like that. :-hahTheir website is not down, it's refusing requests to connect. Could be they have pulled the plug, or could be a hacker's work.But after spending a good solid day this week hacking the 707 panel to work to what I consider an acceptable level, they're on my s^%& list again right now anyway.Bob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile

Looks like the website has been hacked or other server problems. I would seriously doubt that they've folded. They would continue the sales and just cease the support, like so many others before.Pat

Hi"They would continue the sales and just cease the support"So nothing has changed.;)Now I`m sad but in a way that`s good news as opposed to them morphing into a new group that can continue their stellar performance.Pete

Their physical server is still up, but the html server isn't, so it could be any number of reasons. Their history is one of utter disorganization in all aspects of their operation; this is just another example of how to screw up a business, and is something no modern - I hate to say "western" business management would tolerate.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/166364.jpg

If they did close, good riddance. Frankly I'm tired of people making threads about how they bought CS's crappy products and complain about it on this forum. Next up: Ariane. I can only dream though.
