I bought it on Steam and they have not unlocked it yet for downloading.
 
I will preaty much guarantee it will be larger than 1.17GB. That must just be the game front end.
 
Terrain\map data will be much much more.
 
Can't wait to play it.

There's a Nvidia driver update today that rolls in a few FS20 optimizations.

I got the standard edition installed through Xbox on Win10.  It downloaded 91GB.  Honestly I'm pretty impressed so far but I need to spend more than the 20 minutes I got tonight.  The download process was ridiculously slow.  It took 2+ hours to download that and install it.  I can download 90GB in just a few minutes normally.  They really changed the default keybind layout though so that's gonna take a bit.  Once I re-map my normal Saitek X52 config to the new keybinds though that will help.  Visuals looked pretty good so far, though I haven't done any real tweaking on them yet to see how far I can push.  Most stuff defaulted to "high" vs "ultra" out of the box though and I was pulling mid-upper 40's everywhere (Seattle area and Sacramento) in a Cessna with no weather. 
 
This thing definitely makes a LOT more use of the system than FSX ever could.  Averaged about 50-55% CPU usage on a 3700X while flying, and my 2080 Super was about 70-75 usage and using about 7.3GB of VRAM.  Oh, yeah, system RAM.  First load while loading into Seattle I capped at 20GB of RAM being used.  The rest of the time I was around 12-16 including all system processes.  I'm idling at 5.5GB right now for reference. 
 
Still noticed the old micro-stutters though.  Not sure if that's just some optimizations that they need to do, or something with the terrain download/etc process.  I was also playing with VSync on/off and maybe on was causing some frametime spikes.  Definitely gonna start pushing overclocks on my 2080 now though to squeeze more performance out for this.  Going to continue playing around with it and once my free with CPU purchase 3 months of XBox gamepass is up I'll probably buy the super premium collectors comes with the kitchen sink edition on Steam so I don't have yet another game platform to deal with.  

Three hours exactly to download/install. Now you have to spend more time figure everything out.

downloading... Flight stick & HMD @ the ready.

Is it just me?
Cannot select any airport to take off from in free flight. Only the ones in the list which seems like only the super detailed ones based on package purchased.
Still getting to know the new interface but I thought all airports were supposed to be available for TO\landing and only a few were super detailed.
Anyone else seeing the same?

I saw a couple threads on this, and had the issue myself last night.  Not really sure what I actually did to fix it after seeing some posts about it after it started behaving for me.  Potential fixes are restart the sim, restart the PC if you haven't since install, zoom out/pan the map around.  For me, something between either exiting and going back in or moving/zooming the map fixed it for me.

FS2020 seems pretty tame as far as required equipment. The sim limits you to 60 frames, at least for me, but I turned everything on Ultra, etc., and all worked nicely.
 
I tried the Airbus but it would taxi extremely slow and would not turn. Brakes were off and TOGA thrust. The lower SD display would only display the fuel page and you could not switch it.
 
Also has trees in the sky at Aspen, CO.
 
The graphics look ok but nothing like the trailers so far.

FS2020 caches each time you select an airport and that eats up a lot of GB's. I deleted and turned off the cache and did not notice any difference.
 
Still trying to figure out how you can delete the entries in the logbook.
