AVSIM 5 Star Review for FS Flight Keeper v2.0

13.10.2004

~~ IMPORTANT ~~

We were forced to change our Server Provider. It might be that either our pages or emails are not working properly. This should be fixed within the next two days. We apologize for any delay that this might cause.

Due to this change we were also forced to move the FlightKeeper.net domain, but this takes some weeks until it is fully transfered to our new provider. In the meantime we have a new FS Flight Keeper domain:
