Proper Start Sequence

[Ricardo41 5,935]

The documentation that Carenado delivers with their addons is mostly close to useless, so I'm asking here for those who already bought the plane:

what is the proper start sequence from cold and dark? The first 6-7 steps, so to speak.

Just scrolled through the normal procedures and IMO you can follow these checklists, just leave out the items which aren't there/simulated.

There are quite a few switch positions which must be changed when following the cockpit preparation checklist.  

The first 6-7 steps will not bring you very far since the point cockpit switches - set contains more than 20 points.

Don't know why you consider the included documention mostly close to useless.

Because I'm a big fan of tutorials and introductory flights.

Are the Engine Start Buttons supposed to illuminate when pressed?  Fuel boost switches set to Norm, ignition switches set to Norm?

Yes, but they still aren't. 😞

The Engine buttons do not illuminate. When N1 reaches about 20% after hitting the Start button, find the engine cut switch at the base of the power levers. Its not obvious. Click on it. then click on the power lever at top and it will move to idle position.. Now engine will start. Too bad there is no POH. Typical Carenado.
