@JeanGuiraud @MSFSofficial Thanks Jean.. Yeah I wasn’t looking for any workarounds. But I was just pointing out a simple feature such as “Restart” shouldn’t be broken in a software that has been in development for many years… 👍😉👍

It seems to be an old error message that happened for PC users of #MicrosoftFlightSimulator so I will ***ume that this might be a temporary issue on Xbox Series S caused by an intermittent connectivity problem. Hopefully it goes back to normal itself.

If anyone knows how to fix this on Xbox Series S? Maybe it is a temporary fault on #MicrosoftFlightSimulator? I am logged in as it says & downloaded & installed something from the content manager. Only the online scenery doesn't seem to download so it plays like "offline mode". https://t.co/SxumhKrp3y

@MSFSofficial how do I resolve this. I've tried the obvious. Restart both xbox and modem. Signed in and out of xbox live. Check server status. Been playing for over a year. Flew earlier today without a problem. #msfs2020 https://t.co/urPDenrKMi

@MSFSofficial Adjust the autopilot, it gets stuck and won't go down as we approach the runway for landing! I had 17 miles to go and was stuck at 14,000 steps!

We see this with the tanks too, 3-6 weeks training for an attack on Crimea.

@collins_belton Not good enough for eyes as cursors but close enough. The problem is the roster of games is too small.
