It was my first post on this forum; got caught in an automatic filter for staff review.

yeah ATC is an unsolvable issue

issue is that a lot of sim aircraft FMCs don’t allow you to download the wind/weather forecasts en route. without the wind forecasts the FMC can’t make realistic fuel and time predictions. so the flight planning software (simbrief) is typically the one size fits all solution for this
probably a realistic depiction of what would go on IRL. i wonder if these flight planning computers are ever down IRL.
haha it was hilarious! the auto mods in these forums can be weird.

the wind and weather fmc download does not come from Simbrief
We have been working on it since before it was reported here, as soon as our servers reported the issue.
We are working as quickly as possible to get the service up and running again.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Cheers

Well, gentlemen, we are grounded. This must be how airlines feel when their systems go down.
VATSIM is gradually emptying, as it appears no one is taking off. It’s remarkable to see the level of fidelity and how essential SimBrief has become for us simmers. This just proves how well-built and effective SimBrief is: an absolute necessity for flying these days! Let’s hope the team can resolve this issue quickly.

Was looking forward to plan a flight and fly tonight but seems that Simbrief is down. 
Is it possible to send an email to let us know it is back so we don’t need to keep refreshing the site~?
Thanks!!
Simbrief used to work fine just 2h ago now it wont load my subscription is active
and my internet is good
can you please help
No offense mate but if you look for 20 seconds you’d see that the website is down and that they are investigating. Not just you. 
Thanks but after i posted it i saw the post that shows its down
Slightly off topic here, but why do you still use 2020? Just curious 
i like it better than 2024 im an airline Pilot and 2020 is better to me
