Anyone tell me please how to switch OFF the engines on the  standard FS 9  Learjet.
I have tried everything on the Throttles panel and all buttons and switches on the main panel without success.

Thanks.

For a keystroke, it's Ctrl+Shift+F1

Not sure about on the panel.

There should be a fuel cutoff switch on the engine/throttle subpanel. It should be below the throttles. Click it once and you should hear the engines start to spool down.

I think that fuel cut-off is on the Boeings.

If you have a yoke.. just pull the mixture lever all the way back.. If you have a multi button joystick.. assign buttons to richen/lean and use them..

Or.. use the 737 throttle quadrant in the Lear....

Find this paragraph in the panel.cfg file:

[Window03]
file=Throttle_Quadrant_640.bmp
size_mm=203
position=0
visible=0
ident=THROTTLE_PANEL

gauge00=Lear_45!throttle quadrant, 0, 0

Replace the above line with the one just below..

gauge00=737-400!Throttle Quadrant, 0, 0


Of course.. make a backup of your original panel.cfg (just in case)

Using mixtures controls for any jet engine might work but is not very realistic, since no jet engine that I know of uses mixture controls.
Just use CRTL + SHIFT+F1 it works for all engines. 8)
