What am I doing wrong (not a jet guy generally)? I follow the checklist (which seems incomplete) and my engines seem to stay stuck at 25 N2 and won't clear the oil pressure warning lights. I just sit on the tarmac and increasing throttle does nothing. I'm clearly missing a step along the way. 

Thanks.

Likely. Where is it? And if it were set wrong wouldn't that keep the engines from running at all? They are "running", but lowly.

Yes, it really is just a few steps...

1) Make sure both engines are set to STOP (above the throttles) and throttles are at idle.

2) Press the engine starter for one engine and watch the N2 spool up - when it gets to 20, press the STOP for the engine you're starting and it will switch to RUN and the engine should then spool up.

Troubleshooting: If you have the Mixture or Prop mapped that may be interfering with your attempt to start the jet. If the button says RUN before you try to start, it won't work...

That was the problem. Now my issue (bug) is not making the passengers sick as this puppy tries to fly a simple straight line on a flight plan. The plane just weaves left and right continually. I had seen up and down in videos but this is new.

The intercept logic is bad for sure, though I've flown lots of real world GA planes with the same problem! Best to use heading mode to get close, then engage FMS nav mode, and be sure the correct leg is active...
