MSFS 2024 SU2 where do I find "QUICK PREFLIGHT"?

Featured Replies

Good morning everyone, I'm new to MSFS 2024 and I would like to ask you a courtesy and a big favor: can you tell me where I can find the "QUICK PREFLIGHT" function in the simulator and how to use it?
I thank you very much for your help from now, I would like to skip the walk around and the removal of objects around the plane!
Thank you very much!

So a search on Quick Preflight as shown below.

You can even bind both quick preflight and enter cockpit to the same key. That way one press will get you into the cockpit with all covers and chocks removed

Regarding the useful suggestion above by JonathanC, note that for some strange reason the "enter cockpit" binding is actually called Take Control of Character.  So if you assign a key, like Shift+C, to both Quick Preflight and Take Control of Character, it looks like the below.
