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
