mseder 13 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I installed the ver 3 for FSX and can't have the External air staring either. The radio button for it is checked in green in the DC-8 services pop-up, but can't be either turned off or on, And BTW, is there some docs regarding the automatic engineer?

FS_no.1 0 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Dear osvi234I I recently solved the external air problem (as you might have seen in the forum right below this thread) the new groundinterface file that michael uploaded worked perfectly fine for me. have you tried to turn on the external air on the shift+5 pannel? It worked for me. just pressing the tailhook shortkey(shift Q ingeneral) itself didnt do anything ... but as I turned the external air on the shift+5 panel as well as shift Q shortkey, the air started to flow.

Cruz Miguel 0 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I`ve purchased recentely the DC-8, have the same problem (no air start), posted on Aerosoft site for an answer, more than a week ago, still waiting for an answer. Got this info from them: Détails du ticket Demandeur Mxxx Cxxx Création - dimanche à 23:25 Dernière activité - dimanche à 23:25 Affecté à Jonas Scholz ID #6760 Statut Ouvert Priorité — Prepar3D or Flight Simulator X Version [Flight Simulator X] Microsoft Flight Simulator X - Steam Edition Système d'exploitation [Windows] Windows 10 - Build 1909 or Higher Matériel — Nom de l’addon - Douglas DC-8 V.3000 Had the addon instaled previously, from a friend who had the airplane. Everything worked fine. Had to reeinstal fsx -steam. Bought the DC-8 as I didn`t have his autentification code. Installed it - DOESN`T WORK (meaning no air start), no answer from Aerosoft to my problem. $10.000 question: was this realy a good purchase?? Or it was just a bunch of Euros thrown in the wind?
