A HOTFIX CAN CHANGE ONE OWNER'S STORY IN AN HOUR
On 21 October, MerlinCH65 reported that the app waited for systems and closed, leaving the aircraft unusable despite reinstalling.

The next page still contained PHJAAP's authorisation-timeout report after resets and restarts. GOTAWAKEMAN, meanwhile, edited a separate door-texture complaint to state it was solved in 3.0.0.7454.
