What's happening to my (our) Euroharmony?

(1/3) > >>

EHM-1695 Hélio:
Next year i'll be celebrating 10 years as an Euroharmony pilot... At least, i really want so...

In the last two years i was a bit "offline" due to studies, work and family. So, when, a couple a months ago, i returned to fly i was surprised with a very different Euroharmony.

The "euroharmony" callsign that was a constant presence in Europe virtual sky just disappeared. I  didn't heard or saw other euroharmony pilot at the same time as me in IVAO since i returned to fly...

The ivao mtl livery also disappeared...

Propilot it's dead-

And the number of active pilots it's something like 40...

So, what really happened in the last two years?

I'm really sad about this, and even with so few free time, i'm here to fly and help to take Euroharmony back to the good days!

EHM-2387 Eric-Jan:
You are so right, Hélio.

The number of active pilots has dropped below a critical point, somewhere last year. That meant we are not "big" enough to be maintained in the IVAO VA database as such, which in turn meant that we lost our Company Channel on Teamspeak only two months after it was implemented, and indeed our MTL liveries.
We do have a "private" Company Channel now (a voice client, separate to Teamspeak for inter-pilot voice communications; see one of the last announcement threads), which works nicely for those that are flying online together. We have a small group of pilots that try to get together in the air every week or so. I used to be one of them, until last week. I had to dismantle my FS PC because we are currently re-doing the upper half of our house (ceilings, walls, and floors), so my PC is now in storage for a while. I must say: I have seriuous withdrawal symptoms! Another motivator to get the rooms upstairs decorated again... But, that's just my excue for not flying recently. Everybody has one, I guess. I see some people come, some go, some return after being away for a while. But overall, we have seen a decline in the number of active pilots over the last three years, indeed. :(

ProPilot is not dead - it just lives in a different place that you are used to: the new website, under dispatch. You need to lock your PP flights there (or join a PP event) to get PP flights assigned, and then have Flight Logger read your Assigned (PP) flight.

I hope you are back to stay, and find again what you are looking for at EHM. Suggestions for improvement are always welcome, of course ;)

EHM-2463 Jonathan:
Hi, Eric-Jan,

You mentioned that Pro Pilot is not dead, but I am still under the impression it is disabled and there is no way to book them.  Can you let me know if I am mistaken and navigating to the wrong pages?

Thanks
Jonathan

EHM-2387 Eric-Jan:
You are correct, Jonathan. And therewith, so are you, Hélio.

I overlooked that one, because I don't fly that much, these days ... :(
It is still in the hands of our website programmer, who is trying to figure out a work-around for the Google Maps API error.

EHM-1997 Alexander:
Propilot flights can be locked once more.
