    Re: Engine won't start, possible solution

    Just thry this, I know jet engines don't have a mixture, but try to press ctrl+alt+F4, then try and start the engines, just give it a try, no matter how weird it sounds.


    If god wanted us to fly he would of given us wings... That's why we fly planes!!!!

    In other words, try and use your hotkeys that are tied to "mixture full rich" or "increase mixture". then start your engine(s).

    Re: Engine won't start, possible solution

    That is standard procedure for starting jet engines.  CTRL+SHIFT+F4 opens the fuel valves (unless you manually toggle the switch that opens them), and CTRL+SHIFT+F1 closes them (shuts engines down).  I have used every possible procedure for starting the engines.

    CTRL+E for auto start

    CTRL+E+{Eng No} to start individual engines

    Manually go through the start procedure as outlined in the readme file.

    None will work!

    That is a Keyboard Shortcut for both Air/Fuel Mixture Increase and to Enable the Fuel Valves (as Bob put) So it doesn't sound Weird at all!

    Re: Engine won't start, possible solution

    Just a thought, It works when I cold start the 737, even though the fuel levers in the VC are up and open, sometimes I have to push that to get them to light, hope you cn figure it out.

    Re: Engine won't start, possible solution

    There is "something" at issue with some FS9 planes when you import them to FSX that causes this.  I haven't found the cause, and apparently neither has anyone else here, yet.  Hopefully someone will, ... soon... i'm still looking myself.

    Engine won't start, I think I've cracked it!

    Go to: http://cid-b92b43a4a0d447e4.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/WWA?uc=1&lc=1033 because with a bit of changing a few digits, I think the WWA727-200 Works!

    Try it out!

    EDIT: It's the aircraft.cfg file!

    hhmmm... It seems to make my Engines Fire Up, but ajusting the throttels away from 1% causes the Engins to shut down!

    Well, it was worth a try!

    It's because imports from FS9 - FSX have the problem, I thought it would contain something on how to fix it.

    I would of checked myself, but I keep having power-cuts Sad due to bad Weather
