Thats a side effect of photogrammetry not streaming properly from their servers (usually due to poor connection) rather than to do with lower graphical settings.

I do have a Gigabit fibre connection, so I’m struggling somewhat with that

Ouch. Just looked at the price on Steam - 70 Quid! Think this will be waiting for a sale to go along with a new PC!
Game Pass for a month to see if you like it?

Possibility, yes.
Not for me. With each patch the sim got buggier and buggier. Random crashes to desktop. For this reason I won't be rushing to pick up the 2024 edition - will wait a few months and scan player feedback.

I wouldn't expect it to be buggy and crash a lot given FS2020.
Also seems quite stable now, running 4k, DLSS Q, LOD @ 400, and extra overhead due to straming to the tv, and had a flight from mcr airport last night, ran really smooth.

Do a google mate, it's the reason for 'marshmallow buildings' phenomenon. There are several posts about it on the official forums. Go to a non photogrammetry area and look at the AI generated buildings, they should look fine.
I also have a don fibre connection and suffered from the marshmallow buildings, googled extensively, found out that even the most minor (seemingly unnoticeable in general use) network disruption can cause issues with photogrammetry streaming. My internet seemingly worked flawlessly, great download speeds etc but MSFS photogrammetry just wasn't rendering in properly a lot of the time. I ended up getting a new router and using the Superhub 4 in modem mode and just like that my issues went away, as soon as I went back to using the Superhub 4 as the router the issue returned.

Are you running wireless or wired internet ? If you are wireless it's probably more likely to be down to some kind issue with your home networks signal than the actual connection coming in to your house (presuming its decent speed).
Don't get me wrong MSFS can stream photogrammetry fine via wireless, but the chance of encountering this photogrammetry issue is increased a lot from what I've read.

Ethernet but via the power line.

I've gone for the full-fat version myself, very excited for the release date
Thinking the same.
Expensive, but YOLO, YCTIWY, FOMO and lots of other acronyms.

This is my concern as I'm only on a 15 Mbps connection.
I can always upgrade my PC to faster hardware, but I can't do that with my rural broadband.

I would love to buy this but I'm thinking my minimum spec pc might struggle.... Maybe next year I might have some cash for a rebuild.

These should be the extra aircraft in aviator edition:
Famous Flyer Aircraft
“Famous Flyers,” a line that commemorates aviation history’s most notable and iconic aircraft.www.youtube.com
Local Legend Aircraft
All Local Legend releases to Microsoft Flight Simulator. “Local Legends” will frequently coincide with World Updates. These aircraft are famous in the region...
I'm tempted to go for it but £200 is a little steep. Any idea how it plays on a Xbox Series X? I have a yoke etc that works with it. Not sure my PC will handle this.
Looks like CD Keys will be selling the Aviator edition for £146.49 looking at their website.
Significant saving over the £200 Steam are asking.
I'll deffo be biting at that price.
Says EU version activates in UK. Premium deluxe for £93.39 is a good option.
