If your feeling is true, we should not experience any black avionics in offline mode.
I have not tried offline mode so far, but it is worth a try.

Flight - Kord to UUEE
Flight time - 10 hours
Rolling cache - off
Aircraft- 787
CTD - Yes
Black Avionics - Yes
Notes - smooth flight until touchdown. Immediate black avionics and at gate CTD ! Worse than su6 hands down . KORD is a major culprit it seems on the Xbox for this behavior as all the airports seem to be doing this for the most part . Certainly not stable .

I have had immediate CTDs the moment I load into KORD with the F/A-18. It happened like 5 or 6 times in a row. Its the default airport too.

Chicago is notorious! What I do is clear the rolling cache , restart my system and sometimes it works . But yes anything now in the KORD I would say avoid at all costs Your guaranteed black avionics from startup or when you do get the heck out of there , youāll get a black screen on the arriving airport. What a complete an utter mess .

Black Avionics: NO
CTD: YES
Comments: Smooth takeoff and cruise but CTD on final approach 50 feet above runway. Honestly, Iām starting to get extremely tired and frustrated of all of these CTDs. Itās demotivating to even load up MSFS to attempt any sort of IFR airliner flight on Xbox with SU7. I have to cross my fingers and hold my breath just hoping there is the small chance of a successful flight without a CTD. This sim is currently not in a good state and itās a game of CTD Roulette (unless Iām simply doing small prop plane flying VFR across rural areas) . I donāt know how much longer I can do these reports if I just keep on getting CTD after CTD with any sort of IFR airliner flight in big cities. SU6 I rarely had issues to this extent.

Live weather - on
Rolling Cache - off
CTD - Yes
Black avionics - no
Notes - Spent a good time to plan a flight cross country, taxiing was ok , runway 31l via deez transition about half a mile in the air and crash to desktop! There seems to be a specific issue in the deez transition that guarantees a CTD when takeoff from 31l at JFK . Very unusable for big airliners since this new update. I did not have any issues in sim update 6 such as these where itās about every major airport is either having a black screen from the start , or a CTD of some sort . This is all the product straight from the box and a wait until February for a fix is unacceptable! I honestly canāt see how Asobo plans on bringing out these expensive aircraft coming with such major issues like this . If you canāt even have a full functionality of simple avionics as well as constant CTDs , than these big name aircraft arenāt going to fare well with the consumers.

We thought about flying offline with offline data. We could at least make the point that it is related to streamed data. So far now one tried flying offline in the hunt of black avionics.
Edit: today marks the first time I have not played MSFS in two days since I bought the Xbox Series S exclusively for MSFS two month ago. the cause is this very issue and the worse situation with the GOTY version.

Couldnāt take off a flight yesterday, no matter where. Textures problems. Maybe it will be better today. It definitely has something to do with servers too. Itās different every day
