Edit: Solved after update 6 - Sim freezes while loading EKCH
Edit: I loaded into EKCH three times in a row, so it seems my issue is solved. Going to re-rate this add-on now!
So, whenever I try to start at EKCH by FlyTampa (purchased through marketplace in game), the loading screen will freeze about halfway through, and I have to kill MSFS in task manager. I do not own any other FlyTampa product, and this is indeed my first payware product in MSFS. Only mods installed are some liveries and FBW A32nx, and Working Title CJ4.
I tried to start at another airfield and set a flight plan to EKCH, but fast forwarding time to final approach at EKCH froze the loading bar again.
Unfortunately, I can't get a refund because of MS's predatory marketplace policies, so now I would like to at least get it to work. Anyone else with the same problem?

Re: Sim freezes while loading EKCH - no other Flytampa products owned
I just tried starting at another airport and flying to EKCH, and there were no problems. So the loading screen only hangs when I try to start at EKCH.

This time my game crashes while approaching EKCH. I'm done with this plugin, and I'd warn others to stay away too.
Re: Sim freezes while loading EKCH - no other Flytampa products owned
No problem here. I suggest that you delete any cache/rolling cache, shut the sim down, delete the content.xml and then start the sim up and see how you get on. It may take a little while longer for the sim to start up the first time after you have deleted the content.xml.

I tried all that already. Doesn't work.

Have you tried with EVERYTHING in your community folder removed, except for EKCH?
Re: Sim freezes while loading EKCH - no other Flytampa products owned
Strange how some people have issues and others don't. Hopefully the sim update later today will fix the problem.

I guess it's my last hope :(

Or rather, a fresh download of MFSF is my last hope, but that's a daunting prospect considering how long it takes to download all updates!

I have the same problem and always chose my airplane to startup in EKRK. When I am parked in EKRK I stop this flight and go back and chose EKCH and then Fly Tampa EKCH loads.
