Cold & Dark

A few days before FS9 came out, I posted about how I wish the FS team had worked on implementing Fly! style panels instead of clickable VC's - now I'm eating my words. Going through the startup/shutdown checklists in the VC mode is a blast! It really helps immerse me in the game.So that begs a question, is there a way to have all the aircraft load cold & dark? Does the FS2K2 trick still work (saving a default situation)? There was also a freeware gauge that could shutdown aircraft when they loaded. Does that still work in this version?- Thanks, Kenny B
