Thanks for the help everyone. It is truly appreciated. Here is what I found out. My PANC scenery from Aerosoft, the Anchorage X scenery, the runways 33 and 15 were different. They were changed sometime after the scenery came out to 33 and 15. So my friend found an update from Aerosoft that changes the runways to the proper designation, 33 and 15. We both had the issue, and never had it before installing the scenery update. During our 2 hours of testing, my friend loaded up at a different airport and it worked as it should, so I uninstalled the PANC scenery and reinstalled the Anchorage X scenery with the old runway designations. For some reason, the update to the PANC scenery and the QOTS 2 did not get along. Once I got rid of the update to the PANC scenery and installed the original Aerosoft's Anchorage X scenery, I loaded up my saved flight, and it made the transfer flawlessly. It makes no sense to me why the scenery would mess with the engine generators, but like I said before. With flight sim, ANYTHING can break. Thanks again for the help! Josh

I start engines 3&4 and then 1&2, all with all three packs off, yes. I will try to bump the throttle. I just think it is strange I have used the same procedures since I got this and am just hitting this problem. Only other thing different is I have updated my Aerosoft Anchorage X scenery to show correct runway's and now I am having this problem. I am going to undo that update and see what happens. The scenery shouldn't mess with it but with FlightSim anything is possible to break something lol.

I gave that a shot on all 4 and that did not help. Thanks for the reply. I will keep trying to solve this issue and I will post if I figure something out. Josh

Has anyone had an issue with, after engine start, your APU Gens will remain in the ON position and not automatically switch to the AVAIL position? If I turn off the APU or the generators after engine start I lose power to the aircraft. With the engines running I have also seen the warning message the engine generators are not on, but with I look at the electrical switches they are normal. To try and figure out the problem I have gotten rid of saves, all my panel states, leaving the default. I have loaded fresh. selected the 744 default state that comes with the aircraft and the engines are running. I shut them down to test and relight then as normal procedure I use. They generators turned off automatically. So I shut everything down to plan for the flight since the test worked. Once I finished planning the flight and pushed back, it was back to the same problem. I have messed with different scenario with a friend who is having the same problem for two hours and am still having trouble. It is like there is an issue with the engine generators, but loading fresh is not fixing much. Let me know if this is a known issue and if you know what the cause is? Thanks, Josh
