Cold and Dark?

[g_precentralis]

Can I start flight with Cold and Dark cockpit settings. Also, can I start my flight on some GA apron?

1. Park your aircraft wherever you like
2. Set parking brake (Shift-X)
3. Shut down avionics and battery
4. Save your flight

From now on, simply Load that saved flight. You can create as many Saved Flights as you wish and name them so you'll remember what they are... :Nerd: It's worth mentioning also that Flight will itself remember where you last left your aircraft and what condition you left it it when you quit Flight. Unless you choose to Load a Saved Flight, you will return precisely wherever you were when you quit Flight.

Just to add one point to Bill's answerWhen saving your flight, be sure to be inside the aircraft.(There is some problem of MIA planes when saving and outside of it)

No, no, no, you're missing all the fun of how wonderful MS Flight can be!!!

1. Park your aircraft wherever you like
2. Set parking brake (Shift-X)
3. Shut down avionics and battery
4. Get out of the plane and leave MS Flight (just as you would leave the airport in real life).

The next time you start MS Flight the plane will be where you left it in the state you left it... without having the need to save it!!!! This is FAR more real then loading a specific flight (with specific settings) everytime! You can do exactly what you would do in real life! Just go away and everything will be as it was when you left automatically!I just LOVE that feature! Makes it so much more realistic imho! :wink:And btw it works everytime this way, so also with missions etc. I just did a hamburger run mission and left the plane cold and dark on a specific spot. I quit MS Flight (had to go somewhere in real life) and when I came back I started MS Flight and simply clicked on Fly... and there I was! At the exact same spot, everything cold and dark!So forget about saving flights unless you have something setup that you really would like to keep for future use.

This! I shut down, got out, left Flight... and when I came back some ¤&%()# had stolen my plane, right under my virtual nose!
