Cold & Dark

Postby Mackyboy » Sat Mar 17, 2012 6:33 am

Hi all,
Happy St. Patricks Day.
When flying the default Boeing 737, I've been starting it up from cold and dark to make it more real.
My question is, is it possible to start the default A321 and Boeing 747 from cold and dark.

Cheers

yes both aircraft can be started from cold, make sure you have your master battery switched on and your avionics, on the a321 there are 2 engine start buttons on the engine control panel...dont forget to apply the park brake first!

On the extremely rare occasions that I select complex Passenger Jets, I find that a browse through the Aircraft Owners Flight Manual, beforehand, invaluable.... :)...!

You can take any plane and get it in the game, then take and shut it all down ( the plane) and once it is cold and dark save it and click the save as default box. That way every time you load fsx your planes will be cold and dark.
