Oh I agree, I love GSX, and have been looking forward to it since day 1 of MSFS,
I don’t mind bugs, every product has that…issue is FSDT are claiming GSX doesn’t cause CTDs when it clearly is
Be glad, I would hold off until the CTDs are fixed. Seeing now lots of people experiencing it.

That was exactly my consideration before I bought it…besides that it installed without hiccups on my system - and was able to request a follow me for several GA’s on several AP’s I tried in the last hours…by, blue rubbon (finally…) 
As far as I can see you can’t as yet customise it to work with something smaller like the Twin Otter. It would be a cool feature if you could just disable or remove all the ground stuff thats not applicable to your chosen aircraft. It would be nice just to have a few passengers walking out to a smaller aircraft.
Maybe I’m not reading the manual correctly but it doesn’t look like you can do that yet with it.

It’s fine for me, but I would wait a day or so if you want to spare some headaches with downloading/installing repeatedly to try to get it to work.

I had that happen last night. Turned out to be an issue with browser data. I can’t remember the name of the secure server site they use for downloads, but if you delete any browser data from FSDT and that site, you should be able to complete the purchase.
No CTDs in 2 months, then 3 CTDs on 3 attempts to fly today since installing GSX. There’s definitely some sort of issue or conflict here.
FYI, Using SU10 Beta 4.

The blurb on their website does say…
Works with any aircraft… users can create their own custom aircraft profile, to adapt GSX to any airplane that will eventually be available in the future

PMDG 738/737/736 - “refuel trick”
Go to community\pmdg-aircraft-737\SimObjects\Misc\PMDG_Fuel_Truck\model
Backup file named model.CFG
In notepad or notepad++ open file named model.CFG
Delete PMDG_Fuel_Truck.xml
Save changes and launch msfs.

Hmm. I’ll need to study it more. I just can’t see a way to delete certain ground services you don’t need before you hit the boarding button.

Let’s go..
A kind of weird installer ‘1 of 4E29 please wait’, but so far without having to edit anything it seems to be guessing stuff ok.
The fuel “issue” is documented in the manual of GSX. You can use the progressive fuel option in GSX to have more realistic times. If not, then you have instant fuel loading, and I think, that´s actually a good option to have. So I won´t hold that against GSX.
No CTD with PMDG during my flights. But Fenix caused CTD for me regularly.
I can live with some visual bugs like the cloned baggage loading guy or some clipping issues. nothing unusual. Doubled marshallers…well ok, you can bypass this by not using the built-in ATC f.e., jetways not connecting, passengers floating through the air betwen jetway and plane, passengers floating beside the jetway that´s pretty immersion killing, but ok, it´s just released and you could smile about it (and as someone said, it´s also important to support devs who are making these add-ons, especially if they are “part of the family” like Umberto !!), but the CTD topic bugs me so much, that I uninstalled it. And now everything is nice and working again.
Still, I want GSX very badly to work. When it is working, it´s just sooo good with all those cars, livieries, etc. There have been subtle improvements, simple things like you can choose if you also want to deboard the crew or let them stay in plane for a turnaround. Animations (while not perfect) are a step up as are the vehicle models and texturing etc. So, it has tons of potential, it surely will be good, just can´t really recommend it for now. I am sure this will change, so this should not be taken as product bashing, just to be aware that it is not really ready for release yet.

Just starting to get my head around it now, and trying to avoid marketplace airports so far.
If I see double dot parking slots (say gate 17 and gate 17A) then is it a sign I need to edit something and exclude? (apologies if this is already answered above).
EDIT: Looks like it was marketplace scenery. Once I tried somewhere else then I just get the 3rd party jetways and parking slots. I can’t see passengers on them, but then I did disable the rear entry stairs and got an audio warning of ‘You won’t be able to see passengers..’. I’ll keep fiddling..
An addon with lots of bugs in a simulation with lots of bugs 
No thanks for me! Pay 38 euros to add bugs… I’ll already wait for SU10 to be released…

Wish I had good things to say, but sadly fresh install and it already doesn’t work. First getting the couatl not running error, then after a couple of updates and restarts that went away, but now clicking the GSX menu no window comes up. So far a 12 page thread on their forums and no consistent solution provided that I can tell. So, right now it’s a $30 paperweight.
It really is a buggy mess. It often does not work at all, or badly and it causes CTDs. And the devs deny that it causes CTD’s, so I am not really impressed by the devs. If it works, it looks amazing, but it rarely does. I really recommend to avoid this for now.

Well this is not encouraging. I bought it and installed it earlier today. The install seemed to go without a hitch but I’ve not actually had a chance to fly this afternoon as the Little League World Series (the best baseball on the planet) is keeping me out of the cockpit for now.
it’s impressive i love it i was one step to get it but with what i’ve read from the forum members i’ve left it for the future.

Now that my installation is up to date, I’ve spent much of this afternoon/evening fooling around with it as it’s currently implemented. It’s quirky for sure. It’s NOT “It Just Works™” level simple. It DOES require some tweaking at least for third party airports. But it IS also seriously fun eye-candy for the sim and adds a lot to immersion when it’s working as you expect.
