Looking at the cessna172 there is a red fuel cutoff pull-switch

A:GENERAL ENG FUEL VALVE:index perhaps? key event would be K:TOGGLE_FUEL_VALVE_ALL

Keyboard command is Ctrl-Shift-F4, IIRC.

Thanks guys, :( Bill

Danny, Just an OH YEAH! :( to you. A quick check of the "non-used" but, required systems at startup is a good deal. For any designer just doing this would reduce "WHY's" in other forums... IE Avionics Bus too. ( That has been a big one ) And not going for the standard -- "Go to Seattle Default" reply. (G:Var1) 0 == if{(>K:GET ME ALL SET UP NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THIS AIRCRAFT WITHOUT CHANGING PREVIOUS FLIGHT STUFF) 1 (>G:Var1) }One of my favorite aircraft to fly is is an F8-F Bearcat ( My Racer ) .. An older model for FS, but darn nice to fly. Anyway the ADF sound is always on @ startup, cannot fix since it's coded in C with a user variable ( No problem, helps w/ checklist) . My complaint is why doesn't FS use the full spectrum of ADF so I can tune into the baseball game.. LOL Glad you got it, just ranting.RomanFS9 - no - X

Yeah, I found I needed to add an initialisation routine as well to set up the fuel tanks and fuel valves. The main problem was when switching from another aircraft with a different fuel setup this would carry over into the new aircraft and cause problems (ie the engine stopping ).

:( It isn't often that I laugh out loud while reading a thread! :( Thanks, Roman, I needed that...Don
