I see that this topic is a bit old now, but I have the same problem as Kilo60 - that is, when I load a saved flight the aircraft reverts to engines off and gear down.
The current flight I'm trying to complete is the 2nd tutorial and my save point is top of climb, so having the aircraft revert to this state is a problem!
I've been looking on Majestic's support forum, but haven't found anything yet.
Any ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks.
