Yes, BATC will choose the SID/STAR itself independent from what was planned by Simbrief, but of course they might match.

You need to turn on the probes, this is part of the take off configuration check.

Could this not be accomplished by creating a profile for that?

Maybe stop feeding the troll now? This obviously will not be resolved here.

That's exactly what happened before you exluded the controls - I double clicked to select the value in the input field which would then collapse the dialog. Should be fine now, but did not test (yet).

There is an option in the settings whether 3rd person view is allowed or not, this might be the issue?

Maybe so ... but no tutorials <?>. https://docs.flightsimulator.com/html/mergedProjects/How_To_Make_An_Aircraft/Contents/How_To_Create_An_Aircraft.htm These are the SDK docs, this should at least give pointers (but I'm no aircraft developer myself)

There are example aircraft projects in the SDK (the DA42, IIRC) - this might help?

You can do this already, as mentioned in a different post here in the forum (but I did not find it myself, either): Click a spot which is *not* a designated parking spot and choose 'On the ground' from the drop-down (with the alternative being 'In the air'). Not 100% sure about the wording, as I don't have the Sim open right now. This opens the plane cold and dark but with chocks and other stuff already removed.
