Did I say 2 day stretch? I mean 3 day stretch. We had 22 online for a chunk of this evening, then a 'lull' to 16, then back to 21.
The network is now operating at Ludicrous Speed.

I was on this evening along with 20+ other pilots as well, number 4 for clearance and no special event............ I Love It!!!!
Keith, can you say "critical mass"?
You have created a fantastic product, and you and your dedicated controllers deserve all the best.
Keep you the great work!!!

Traffic has been crazy in the evenings, I regularly hear clearance 2 and 3 deep know.
Yea and I learned a new move tonight; 360 left turn really is a circle
who would figure
, as going into John Wayne on VFR Flight Following I was told tower was too busy to accept traffic and do a 360 left turn.
Keep up the good work to all!

Froogle, Beer is on me at the Officer club. Excellent PR for PE. I fleew a few flights today because of the traffic in the air and to enjoy the chatter and practice IFR in it. ATC calls were much more abreviated and no-nonsense which was absolutely great! Even flew a leasure VFR flight just to view the traffic around with my new TRACKIR headset. Traffic brings traffic fellas. Good Job to Keith and all of the controllers! I hope this begins a very busy time for the PE online experience.... And yes Keith, This is a validation and I hope it continues with vigor so that we can all enjoy the excellent service you provide with your controllers making this so much more realistic.

Thx guys. While not many people have the large following that Froogle enjoys, some of the other Twitch streamers have some pretty impressive audiences, too, and they've been streaming heavily of late, too. I think it's probably a combined effort and we're very grateful for the traffic.

I got in on the action last night when I saw 22 users online.
Unfortunately I heard no other pilots during my flight from VNY to PSP

You only hear them if they are on the same freq as you.
