Gathering of Developers just dropped us another quick note on Fly! II, their forthcoming general aviation flight sim, so we'll in turn get it to you just as quickly.

Below is a clip from the press release, detailing persistent worlds;

Fly! II is equipped with an advanced multi-player system designed to create a persistent multi-player world that provides the most realistic flight experience and long-term playability. This persistent multi-player world features real-time downloadable weather, other user aircraft, functional radios and much more. Don't hassle with creating or joining groups. Simply connect to Fly! II's continuous, large, multi-player environment to share recent updates with users throughout the world and become part of extended online flight parties, where exciting emergency situations and weather conditions develop. In addition, virtual aviators looking for a specific friend have the ability to search for them and "teleport" them to their location.

To view screen captures of Fly! II's new multi-player system, follow either of the links below.

Fly! II is due for release April 27th. For more information, visit fly.godgames.com.
