New to X Plane - How do I ?

Featured Replies

Yes I know about that but your still having to setup a flight. I guess there is no way in X Plane to save a flight and have that flight open, with every setting and situation in place.

It's still not 100% clear exactly what you want, but I suspect you are still thinking the FSX way where there's an default FLT situation file. Not a problem but here over at the dark side things work a little differently.
 
In X-Plane these are the things you can configure at startup:
 
QUICKFLIGHT SETUP screen
*Airport (defaults to nearest physical airport when X-Plane was last quit regardless of size)
*Plane (defaults to last plane used when X-Plane was last quit)
Always track real date and time (or time preset choices)
Use real weather and winds aloft (or weather preset choices) - an active weather plugin will override this
 
OPERATIONS & WARNINGS settings
*Start each flight on ramp
*Start each flight cold and dark
Discard changes to preferences
 
 
*Changes to these settings are saved when you quit X-Plane unless the "discard changes to preferences" setting is checked
 
Hope that helps!
