Is there a list of all keyboard commands for Microsoft Flight? Their manual has only the "essential" commands, which don't help me as the engine on the Stearman has stopped and I have no idea of how to start it.

Hit the B key to start the engine. All the commands are in the Options menu either under Game Controls or Aircraft Controls. There is also a ton of information in the tutorials, on this forum.

Well, B doesn't only start the engine: it resets trim, turns off the fuel pump (if it's on), sets fuel to BOTH, sets Mixture to 100%, engages the starter and a few other things.

Turn on the Master switch, push the Mixture all the way forward, set the Ignition to "Both" and hit the Starter button on the right-side panel.

 

 

You may need to give her a little throttle, too. She's cantankerous sometimes. But don't forget to hold the brakes if you do.

Thanks, guys. The more basic problem here is that I can't get the throttle low enough to stop on the ground. This is new: when I started today I got a half hour of updates, and now when I cut the throttle the manifold pressure drops down below 10 on the panel but the plane hardly slows down at all. It was fine until today. All the other controls seem the same.
