FO Speaking to early during startup

[dutchkip 4]

Hi there,

 

I've got a small problem with my FO who is going to get sacked if she continuous acting like that. LOL

During startup she starts the engine and says straight after that Starter cutout and then oil pressure, then engine 2 stable even thought startup is still in progress.this only happened in the last 2 flights.

Any idea why this now starts to happen? It has always worked perfectly.

Hey Leo,

I think there is a section in the fs2crew user manual that deals specifically with this issue. You should check it out.

Yes, please check the FAQs thread.

This is mentioned there, along with the solution.

Here it is for you:

Question: During engine start, the FO says "STARTER CUTOUT" way too soon and starts his after engine start procedure before I even started the engines.

Answer: You have a button or hardware lever assigned to the FS "MIXTURE CONTROL" command/event.  Delete that.  FS2Crew reads the position of MIXTURE CONTROL to determine the position of the Start Levers.
