Flights starting on the active runway?

Is there any way to make your flights automatically start from the active runway in FSX? Invariably when I'm flying out of a big airport, when the flight loads I'm not on the active runway, and sometimes I have to taxi for like 15-20 minutes just to get there (especially with traffic maxed). This seems rather ridiculous to me and I'm really hoping there's a simple solution.

Thanks

There is a simple way. When FSX loads up just select active runway or any runway you want. You can also save that position as a saved flight and tick in make this my default flight. (2nd pic)

How that escaped my notice I have no idea, but I just never saw that before. I'll have to double-check, because it seems to default to the active runway, yet I invariably never find myself on the active. I'll have to look the next time I fly and see.

Thanks!
