On Ground Ready For Take Off

You’re correct…my poor memory 

Works great.  I just took off from Farmer Brown's wheat field in the Cessna 172.  Kinda bumpy but it works.

Haven't tried taking off from water with a pontoon plane, but hope I'll get the same result.

This is much more helpful, thanks!

Sorry but when I click anyware at the globe map, appears the option of setting departure, arrival, or fly, clicking the first or the second opens a custom departure box with locked settings of height, heading , etc, and no more.

I cannot find that other options for airborne, on ground shut off, and on ground ready for takeoff described before.-,

Dont care about my post, I found the options.

I tried this and finally found the options... where you chose what runway. This was not obvious at first.

Anyway I entered he cockpit and tried to start and no go. Finally, I went outside and had to take the covers off the intake of the new Cessna I was experimenting with. Then when I reentered the cockpit, I was then able to start the plane.

Point being, this method does not exactly allow you to enter the cockpit and start from cold and dark, at least in my last try.

What did I miss?
