Featured Replies

I wish to start any aircraft with cold and dark start disabled.

Can't you just not load without cold and dark not disabled?

start on a ramp or a gate and then just CNTL- E for start engines and you ill be pretty much set up to go.  Taxi off, set flaps etc and you are Golden

I have assists all off, Airbus 320neo starting at a gate (any major airport), and EVERY time I load into the simulator, the plane autostarts turning everything on with nothing left to do but pushback. Maybe twice out of 20 tries Ive got to be the one to actually enable batteries, APU, fuel pumps etc... Whats going on here?

I've been using ctrl-e as well, but I seem to recall there being a check box on the flight planning screen in FSX. Something like that would be a welcome convenience with this new sim.

There was not unless I’m totally remembering the options wrong. The way we used to do it in FSX was save a flight cold and dark and make it the default. Then no matter where you started it was cold and dark.

Hello everyone, I've tried starting my plane from the runway but it still starts out Cold/Dark. Can I turn this off or change the configuration? Thank you guys for your help.
