Had a quick search and couldn't find anything so...

Did anyone else use Avsim for Flight Simulator downloads? I used to use it on a daily basis when I had more free time but it appears some idiots have gone and destroyed it .

It boggles my mind that someone would go 13 years without using some kind of external backup.

Indeedy. They said they just backed up between the two servers but that seems ridiculous even after thinking about it for 2 seconds!!
