Doesn't sound like it will be back anytime soon.
I know of at least one replacement going live in the next few months.
Regardless its good to hear that real life is improving for him.

That's good news Panther. Thanks for posting that.

FRUGALS !! COME BACK!

Instead of looking at "characters":
Frugals IS an incredible knowledge base for any flight sim and modding fan. This knowledge must be preserved, also should a new site emerge with another name. The spirit WILL be the same!

Panther,

Thanks for posting this up.


Much like all of the great flight sim websites, Mark's "Frugalsworld of Simulations" was (and hopefully will be again) greater than the sum of it's parts. Frug and I met first 13 years ago when he hired me to write for his site, and we became fast friends. It took me some time, but I came to realize that he's an amazingly brilliant and sensible man...two qualities that can be strangers. His love and support for the flight sim community is unparalleled, and like most of us, it's "in his blood". I truly think that when life finally releases it's grip on him, we'll see him back in a big way.

"Characters" at FW's?

I think all flight simmers fall into this category....99% in a good way.

Thanks again for keeping everyone informed.

Have a great day all,


William "BBall" Ball

why re kindle a website which is almost synonymous with falcon when falcon itself is in the process of dieing a slow and terrible death?

i'd much rather have Frug grant FW a glorious and dignifying memory as it deserves to be remembered. (barring mowah and his perma ban heeehee).

Because the forum was so much more than just Falcon? Cougarworld and the Cougar mods forum was an important part for Cougar owners, just to name one special portion of it.

That's one way of looking at it.

I prefer to see it as one long and glorious life

That part of the site has a new address a long time ago.
This is the new address: http://cougar.flyfoxy.com/

F o r u m. Besides that, about half the linked profiles don't work, it's a site in hibernation. One of the reasons why I've created the thread here on SimHQ forum with a list of profiles. The forum was a great resource on tips and tricks on programming the Cougar, or be used as a soundboard on all things relating to the Coug' and modders like IJ could report on their progress and share ways to improve the HOTAS.
