Engine Start at Gate

[Joe L 62]

Greetings,

 

Using button control is it still possible to do the options of starting one/both engines at gate w/o apu, etc?  Reading the button control tutorial and the main ops manual I can not seem to find it.  

 

Also, is de-icing still an option?

 

Thank you.

Hi Joe,

 

De-icing will be handled by UGCX.

 

Button Control does not specifically model cross-bleed starts with the APU inop.  You can do it with voice however.  It's a very rare procedure, but we'll consider it for an update.  You could simulate the same thing by using the arrow key to start Engine 1 before 2.

 

 

Best,

Thanks for the reply. I am diehard button user so please keep the consideration for a possible inclusion in mind. Felt it added some more variety and "field specific" feeling to the sim in the now "legacy" version .

 

Congrats on another successful release!
