I believe that is because the server has the 3.1 patch and you don't.

He has a point though, I see that message all too often and I'm patched to the very latest 3.1a (note the 'a') update from the microsoft CFS3 site. A while back I did a clean re-install to make sure I was using only pure un-modded stock aircraft, but I still get the incompatibility message in around half of the games I try to join. Seems everybody knows about the 3.1 patch but you rarely see any mention of the 3.1a patch....So, which patch are people using ? Its also worth knowing which 3rd party mods might cause these incompatibilites as well. I remember reading somewhere that there may be a multiplayer issue with the wideview cockpits but I dont know for sure what the word is on that. Comments welcome. If we can get everybody at least patched the same then it would go a long way to making multiplayer CFS3 more enjoyable, and less of a chore just trying to find a matching server.
