Try again. secure.prepar3d.com pops up immediately for me.

Cheers!

It's not about the payment page (secure...) but about download page. And that one seems to point to cloud.prepar3d.com. And if you use the previously posted link, you can start the download - I did. 40min left.

Purchase was fine (thanks to the link shared above, thank you!). Took about 5 minutes to access the download page and only having to refresh twice (got that "spam filter" message). Only 1 hour left on the 22.7GB download, we'll see how that goes 🤪

To those who have already installed anyone have aircraft working? Looks like pmdg will take a few days. The only others I own are Aerosoft and captainsim. Hopefully one will work off the bat.

What about FSL?

So, I am downloading it now (X-plane user here).

 

Question:-

 

Do I really have to spend another £120 at Orbx to get it looking good on the ground? (this isn't  a complaint, I am asking a serious question, and the money isn't a problem)

Install it and see if you like it. Most people, myself included, feel it looks a lot better with Orbx.

I have just read the entire contents to date of this thread and I haven't stopped chucking to myself 

Everybody moaning about the download speeds being pretty awful 

DOESN'T EVERYONE REALISE THE WORLD AND ITS MOTHER ARE ON THE INTERNET AT THE MOMENT!! 

There is a pandemic going on out there so its pretty obvious things are going to be VERY slow  😳

I'm trying since its released. Their page does not load at all. I don't know how you guys have managed to order.
