Can scenery be this much bright irl too? I find it kinda distracting and hard to watch scenery in cockpit.

I feel this is the first simulator to make a decent job of depicting the difference in brightness between the cockpit and sky outside. Your screenshot depicts a challenging scenario, flying towards a low sun, a situation that real world pilots on this forum have said can be very difficult. I do have a little experience of flying a light aircraft in exactly this situation and would say it’s realistic.

Yes it’s a challenging situation to be honest, I must move my camera to read instruments clearly in some situations too. I can’t think about possibility of me getting used to this feature quickly.
C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\UserCFG.opt has eye adaptation in it, setting eye adaptation value to 0 had worked once but it didn’t work later on. I hope Microsoft enables this feature as on and off via in-sim graphics settings too.

Apologies if this sounds obvious, but have you tried turning off Bloom in the graphics settings? Doing so reduces the difference between the brightest and darkest areas.

Also, the presets in your monitor make a big difference. I use Theatre mode, which gives deeper dark colors. You want one with high color saturation.

This is correct, the ratio is well done. What is totally and eyehurting missed is a tool that every pilot have in his cockpit. Sunglasses.
