Currently has been 15 hours and I’m at around 25GB, how long did the game take to install for you?
UPDATE:
Did an internet speed test @ 10Mbps
41GB Left
The moment I bought it , it took about 2.5 hours. Now I started down loading , would stop, start and stop. I just walked away never paused it or stopped it. Didn’t use the computer for anything but that down load. So total 2.5 hours
I hate you are having a long dl time , really hope it gets sorted out for you mate.

The MS Store app portion was a few minutes. The content was less than 2 hours but how much less I don’t know because I left for a while.

It took three tries to get it to download and them overnight to download the 95GiB. I still am having trouble getting it up and running. It will not support the Saitek X45 and I was able to upload the X Y axles, but still no control. The Cessna 150 training was OK, but i’m a pilot with dual ATP’s Aiplanes and Helicopter, so if was boring after ten minutes. Need to figure out the mouse key board controls. The Saitek X45 worked very well with FSX. Was hoping to see the world in my J3 cub. Tried to takeoff from RKSA Suwon, Korea, but could not get the brakes off. Big learning curve! Two sheet of small print for mouse/keyboard controls .

Took me about four hours to download and install. Not sure how I got lucky on that one, but I didn’t have any of the issues with installation that people have been seeing.
Ctrl + . [numpad] should take off parking brakes on every plane - that being said, there’s a glitch where the tires can be “sticky,” so if your parking brakes are off you may have to increase throttle to 50% or higher to start rolling.

Took me about an hour and a half from intial download to installed, 15mins after sim launched. I made sure to have just over 500gb dedicated. When the download appeared it was frozen, I just left it alone.

Apprx 3 hours on a 50 mb connection
After 1 week of continuous trying, restarting the game after crashes every 1-2GB of download (I am on a fiber connection as well!) I am still trying to patch the thing.
Only another 74GB to go, so I’ll update you again in October.
I started it late at night when my kids wasn’t hogging all the bandwidth with gaming, got in the Hot Tub and left it to DL, when I went back inside I thought it was done but wasn’t as when I went to load it it still needed 77GB to DL but would not restart, decided to call it a night, got up extra early to uninstall and try again, this time it did install but took just over 3 hours.
about 30-40 mins in a gigabit connection… Lucky me I guess
