If you are, or if you gave up on it because of the atrocious load times, there's a light at the end of the tunnel! Microsoft has released the 1.2 patch, which cuts the load times down to reasonable levels (even faster than some other games). Here's the link to download it:

Note that apparently the hackers have invaded this game to some extent, as one of the patch features is "Harder to use hacked planes in multiplayer games." Wow, it really is I'76 for the skies!
