ATAVS Update 5.1.0.59

A new update was released today. This is for version 5.1 - release 59. Members should download and install the latest update before their next flight. This update is available in the Members Only area. Updates should be unzipped into the same directory/folder where ATAVS was installed (usually C:\ATAVS).

Mountain Madness

AeroTexas will participate in the Mountain Madness Flyin, a VATSIM-sanctioned event in the Vancouver FIR with opportunities to win prizes. It is an all day event taking place on Saturday, February 10, at 1800 - 2300 UTC, and will be sponsored by many of the companies that produce add-ons. In the next few days I will release a list of airports in the Vancouver that are approved for AeroTexas pilots (so you get to compete for the prizes and log some time for the roster as well), including suggestions for making the most points in the event. All AeroTexas pilots will be eligible to participate.

ATAVS Update
