Create a flight with any aircraft and once in the cockpit, shut down all systems. Save the flight,

Well im not exactly sure with a 737 where the buttons are but I know how to with my Embraer 170 because I have to know how to.

You find the engine start knobs maybe on the overhead and switch them to start which should open up your starter valves I believe that's what it is. They go to your throttle and find the cutoff, I think its fuel or something and click both of them and the engines should turn on after a minute then turn the engine start knob to off.

Although I could be wrong, im no pilot. Maybe Brett Henderson can help ?

but how do i get the checklist ON FSX screen

The checklist I pointed to is designed to be printed out (like it says in the readme). It's in PDF format and would have to be converted to HTML to view in the kneeboard.

...and when i have done it, it have a red check mark next to it like this video!

In default aircraft you can't. That video is of an FS2004 addon aircraft (Air Scheffel 737-800) that has the feature built in.

[lunitic_8]

click the check icon in your 2D instrument panel

[SuperMonkey]

how do that help? i changed it

[Brando14100]

click the check icon in your 2D instrument panel

Beat me to it. I think there's a button (like the engine and upper panel ones) that looks like a checklist or a piece of paper. Something like that.

if you read the video comments its for fs9 only

[SuperMonkey]

so there's nothing like that is release for FSX right now?

[lunitic_8]

[Brando14100]

Lunatic8, unfortunately I just checked the icon we were both talking about. This is what it tells you. Some checklist:



I'm out of ideas. Sorry.

thanks for your help!!! ill try FS9 and see what i get =] cuz i sorta suck with 1st person view flying especially while landing im okay with 737 and other all aircrafts but not 747s the bad things is when i try to line up with the runway which is the hard thing when i have it in VC zoon 40
i really want to get good with 1st person view i dont really know how it is when i line up with center line, when i line up with center line in 1st person view that i think it is lined up but when i switch to tail view im off the center line so ill try to work on the checklist and 1st person view landing. and also how come when i take off when i position in hold of runway and STOPED the aircraft then add power to the engine about 50-60% then the aircraft start turning to the left or right?  :-/
