Website Transition

Sean Fisher — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 18:49:18 +0000

I am very pleased to announce that the new and greatly improved SimCOA Website is nearing completion. The original plan was to have it out by Saturday (August 1st) but that wasn’t reached due to time constraints and personal setbacks. But, nevertheless, I plan on releasing the website in full by next Wednesday, August 5th. To get the new site up and running, I will be taking the website offline from 21:30 PM – 01:00 AM EST on Tuesday Night. The forums will still be up right here at http://forums.simcoa.org.

Houston, TX June 25, 2009- Simulated Continental is pleased to announce to return of its Teamspeak server for its pilots. The server has been down for an unknown amount of time. “Simulated Continental has finally restored its Teamspeak Server on a newly implemented Server. This server includes various new security procedures that will greatly enhance the security of our server” said a Simulated Continental representative when asked about the new server. One of the new features that has been added it the use of a “Perl” Security System that will prevent the server from becoming vulnerable. The airline also stated the following, “Our pilot can get the information for the server right from the main website. They will notice a a new piece of information on the right side when logged in.”. When asked for the Teamspeak Server login details, they airline only return the Teamspeak Server IP Address. It has also been reported that there is a Teamspeak Server password but it isn’t publicly available.
