It is so long since my last visit to MAIW website... So, can anybody please update me on new releases or updates?
The last package I remember downloading was Elmendorf AFB v2.
Thank you!

Thanks so much, Nick!
So, I understand these are McConnell AFB and AAC Apaches released so far... But if I can make a suggestion here, wouldn't it be better if you provide a separate thread or listing (smth like WOAI) where late users like me can track the release dates? Sorry if it sounds noobish...
The thing is the space you currently have under New Releases allows for two package names only, if I can guess right. So, there is a very little chance to know whether there were any other updates in the meanwhile...
Thank you!

If you've got everything upto Elmendorf V2, then the two packages on the front page are the only more recently released ones "out there".
I think there's a site called "the owl's nest" which gives a comprehensive list if you're missing packages from before Elmendorf v2.

You're right kungfuman. I've got the link.

Everything you need is on the front page, any new packages will be under the "New Releases" banner in bold. Older releases may still be listed but not in bold. There are not currently any older releases listed because of the demise of AVSIM. So there is no physical link to them any longer. Not much point in keeping them listed for the time being.
Also if you read the announcements on the front page, any new packages will be announced when they are released.

The downlinks go directly to Avsim...It's totally useless.

I don't think that is very fair on the web designer who created that wonderful site for everyone to gather information regarding our packages. I would hope that your wording would be a little more careful in future, Martin has done an amazing job with "The Owls Nest" and he has our wholehearted support. Please think about what you are saying in future.

I only offered it as a comprehensive
list. OP is concerned that he is in the dark about the mere
existence of some packages I think...
I love the way you can get easy access to the readme htm pages on that site. Very slick!
