APU Turned off after Engine 1 start

Featured Replies

I might be doing something incorrectly, but after I press the "Green" button to start the right engine, the engine starts correctly. However, the first officer turns off the APU before the second engine is started. I then have to manually start the APU and start the second engine myself... Any ideas?

Hard to say. The green button may have fired 'twice' when you pressed it (assuming you're using a joystick).Suggestions: try using the keyboard for the green/red button and go slow. Try following the tutorial flight again to the letter to ensure you're not missing anything.Best,

In FS2Crew's 767X, I think it is the red button first, for the right engine, then the green button for the second engine.Also make sure that you have SP1 and SP2 for FSX installed, NOT SP1 and acceleration pack, as the 767 has a bug in engine starts when acceleration pack is installed.

Yes, you are correct. The Red button is to be pushed first, then the Green button second... That was my problem. When I would start using the green button first, the First Officer would act as though both engines were running...
