These new manuals are available [url=https://www.flightsimulator.com/aircraft-manuals/]here on our website[/url]. Finally, yesterday we experienced a service outage that prevented some players on PC and Xbox from launching Microsoft Flight Simulator. This issue has been resolved, and normal service has been restored. We thank you for your patience and understanding while our support teams fixed the issue.
