Hi guys, for some reason the aircraft is always loading with the engines shutdown, but it's not in cold and dark state. I just want to fly when i load up the sim. Instead i am having to go through all the engine start checks every time. Is there a quick way of solving this issue. Many thanks. Mike.

Has this happened since you first installed the plane? Did you by chance change the startup panel state? Go to FMC > PMDG OPTIONS and see if anything is in the startup state line. If so, delete that and you'll be good to go.

Thank you sir, appreciate your time. It was not a feature when i first installed, cannot find anything in the stale line either that would cause this. Guess i will just have to start them every time. Not to worry. Cheers.
