A note of caution: please remember not every country in the world "celebrates" the April's Fool Day on April 1st. In some other places, it's the equivalent to the "Innocents Day" celebrated on Dec. 28th. In such different cultures, the OP could be considered really as a "bad or disgusting joke", mostly if it was making statements about our still beloved and hopefully very much alive MSFS2020.

Try to use a VPN to see if it solves the issue. "Put" yourself (I mean your IP address) in a place in Europe or in the US.

No need to use the horizontal bar. I think it'll depend on your screen resolution or size.

It's the Tecnam P2012, fully recommended. At that price it's a bargain.

If you mean a monthly AIRAC update (to keep your navigation data up-to-date) something that could be qualified as "constant", well, yes, they're very necessary and welcome. Apart of those AIRAC updates, having one or two updates every month is nothing to be concerned about and it depends on your particular installation. The world updates are good, but not released often, the latest one was for Japan, and happened months ago. The sim updates - in the best case - it only happen once a year, if any. So, please, they're absolutely not "constant".

I think maybe something's going on server side, because yesterday I got stutters all over when landing at EDDL and today I had some loggin issues and had to reboot my PC before firing up MSFS2020 again. During the second start-up everything was back to normal and the sim looked very fluid this time.

I'm not a X-Plane user, and I really have never tried it, but recently I knew from this site (see below) that ortho textures are not needed anymore when using this very well known app in MSFS2020/2024: https://www.aiflygo.com Probably X-Plane people should take a look at it.

It happens to me sometimes, and when I change airports and come back to the original it works well. Of course it's a FSDT problem.

I'll probably will be updating mine to v581.08 from v566.14 after almost one year, not because it's required or I'm expecting the graphics/performance to be better, but just to get a newer version. On my opinion, unless there's something specific regarding MSFS on these drivers mentioned in the release notes, which isn't the case, there's no need to change anything.

Just in case... go here: https://www.aiflygo.com Enjoy the app!

I would suggest using the Map Enhancement Tool, with the new Bing Maps. The terrain looks very sharp and clear to me.

Wew!, I've been flying the YS-11 lately and forgot almost averything about the Citation X, but as far as I remember, you have to properly set up your throttle controller for the reversers to work as in any other airplane. I set up my throttle controller following the guidelines for the FBW A320 on their website, so google it and good luck and patience.

The absence of an acceptable good AI engine and ATC, apart from some other important issues like performance improvements and memory optimisation, were the causes of my surprise when I first saw the announcement of a new sim, thereafter known as MSFS2024, still with so many issues, that switched the priority over the new version, instead of make further progress into MSFS2020 at a faster pace. Apart from that, in my opinion, the business model to approach the launch of MSFS2024 has been a total failure for Microsoft.

Mine are: 1. The venerable NAMC YS-11. Really enjoying it. 2. The Cessna Citation X 3. B787-8/9 by Kuro and HorizonSim

Just a week ago I had a "CHECKING FOR UPDATES" (MSFS2020) screen appearing for more than 5 minutes until it finally allowed me to get in.
