Loading flight freezes sim if Aerosoft CRJ is the first aircraft of the session?

I know it’s supposed to take time for the CRJ to load, but at one point I waited 20+ minutes (on a 5950X with a 6900XT) and nothing happened. This has been the behavior at least a half a dozen times now trying to load CRJ as the first flight after launching MSFS. The only way for me to load into the CRJ is to load a flight with another aircraft first. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Yes, I have been having this as well since the last update.

If I load the CRJ first, it freezes halfway through the load, if I quite the sim and start again and load the CRJ, it works fine.

I didn’t try the load another aircraft first trick, good to know!

We should probably report this on the Aerosoft forum.

I posted it there as well: Loading flight freezes sim if CRJ is the first aircraft of the session? - General Discussion - AEROSOFT COMMUNITY SERVICES

I commented over there as well, and one thing I did try is disabling FastLaunch from my Steam profile / client.

As soon as I did that, the CRJ now loads without issue.

Oddly enough, I turned it back on to verify if the issue would occur, and it didn’t.

For now, resolved for me!
