September 8, 200916 yr Please help. I am new to complicated aircraft. I have made progress and can now get the J41 loaded properly and started w/o burning up the engines.As I roll on takeoff how do I handle the throttle and the condition level??? Do I move them together or move one ahead of the other???Thats when the engine smokes. I am not applying the throttle and condition lever properly. I know it is a stupid question but cant seem to get by this point. I am having no problem with applying the stop latches. Thanks in advance for any advice.Frank Neeley
September 8, 200916 yr Frank,You move the condition lever to the flight position, then move the power levers forward. If you're burning engines up, it sounds like you're moving the power levers first, then attempting to move the condition levers, but you'll toast the engines that way.

Also, there is a video that a kind user posted that gives some explanation as well (his post is pinned at the top of this forum).
