Hitting Shift + c puts you right in the cockpit. Takes one second.

but that doesn't remove the chocks/covers etc so you can't actually fly!

I think they get removed after engine start.

I usually just Shift c and start my engines and I taxi just fine.

I wonder if the efb has a section for removing those if they dont get auto removed?

Maybe its plane related, some do, some dont

What plane is that with? ignoring the EFB aspect for the moment, no plane should start and taxi if chocks & covers aren't removed, if they automatically vanish into thin air then that's another thing!

Once you get used to it it's very easy and done in a couple of minutes. I always create 9 customized views in all my aircraft.

In 2020 I used Ctrl F9 to set the Pilot IFR view or something, and that became my default view.  This doesn't seem to work in 2024 so I used one of the Custom Camera Views for default view.

Shift + C doesn't remove chocks, engine nor pitot covers and no can start without those removed.  That is what Walk Around Manager solves, for $5.

Yes, it is plane dependent. 

I have been flying the T6 Texan a lot and they don't come with chocks or covers. Shift + c and off I go. 

I tried the Cessna 172 and you are correct, it wont start without removing engine covers. Good to know.
