Delayed Avialogs relaunch?

[Hoggardhigh]

"Avialogs will be restarted in a new form in early 2026, with a much clearer and stricter focus on aviation history."

IMHO, they might as well move their planned relaunch date to early 2027, given that it's now June.

Anyone know what may be going on?

Avialogs has been offline, then online a number of times over the past year or two (three times IIRC?) and each time the re-start has been delayed. I suspect the site owner has a full-time job and is possibly trying to find ways of making the site make money and/or become a full-time job. I've had a number of small websites over the years and they take a lot of effort just to keep fresh and with new items added. I too was holding down a full-time job at the same time and it all got too much: what should have been a pleasurable experience and a chance to share information became anything but.

So hopefully Avialogs will be back but it's equally possible that the owner has just had enough.

I'm hoping too, it was my favorite source for manuals......

Avialogs has a new screen when you go to the site, announcing it will be starting up again on October 10th.

"Avialogs — Returning October 10, 2026"

Yay !
