Hi,

Perhaps this was already posted somewhere, but I became a bit frustrated at the lack of updates so I decided to track Tom down. 

According to linked in he also founded a company named Spring Lake Software

I then found this. 

Thomas Murdock Obituary (1941 - 2021) - Albuquerque, NM - Albuquerque Journal (legacy.com)

He passed away in July of 2021 from a traumatic brain injury related to a fall. 
Cry

Cleared for takeoff. 
Climb and speed at pilot's discretion. 

Godspeed, Tom. 
Requiescat in pace

PS - I am sure it is him. The birthdate on the obituary line up with the birthdate listed on the forum. That and his employment history all align with his interest in both computers and aviation.

I have no idea where or what David's plans are, but the company is still registered as an active LLC in Washington state

This is indeed sad news. Sympathies to his family and friends.
I've only recently started playing ATCpro, and I don't know how much activity was going into this sim. I could only hope somebody would step in to continue work on this fine product.

Same here. This is very sad and sympathies and condolences to his family and friends. 

I have also recently started playing and became addicted to the game trying to master all the in's and out's and getting used to operational procedures and difficult situations. 

I hope the legacy can continue and developers can continue to work.
