Unless you've found some sneaky way to run it, the Flash client - upon which this game depends - is no more.

Regarding the future of Skyrates... I am aware of no serious plans that are currently underway to rewrite or rebuild Skyrates.

The code itself was never written nor designed to be open-sourced, and there are no plans to release that code.

The best resource for assets and archival information about this wonderful Flash-based game is still The Skybrary.

To connect with former players, check the Alternate Channels section of the Radio page on The Skybrary; I've seen several folks active on the Skyrates Discord channel.

We hope to keep this Forum up for a bit longer, but I don't have specifics on how long it will remain online at this time.

All that said, thank you for contributing to build a wonderful community of diverse players from around the world.

It's been a great flight.
