Quick starting a Twin Otter?


Scott Hahn

Recommended Posts

Is there a quick way to get the Twin Otter ready to fly without going through the checklist?  I tried CTRL-E, but that didn't do the job.  Even right-clicking the tasks in the checklist takes many minutes before the plane is ready to fly.  Then, as a newby, I sometimes crash before I can even take off, only to have to go through the entire startup process again.  Thanks.

I do not think it is essential to go through the check list.

 

From memory - as a rule I simply jump in, switch on the batteries, set up the navigation, lights and such - switch on the fuel and start the engines.  I can be flying in about 5 minutes.  (I usually forget to set the pitch which causes me interesting problems - but hey ho).

 

This is more satisfying that having her 'running' from 'game start' - and it is not too time consuming.
