I ordered mine about 5 minutes after the email arrived from AoA. I have the Level-D DVD that they put out, and it was really good, I learned a lot from it. I am thinking this will be as good, but probably better!

I know that for a vitual airlaine they have something like 15% discount. Might be worth checking if a few pilots are iterested.

Wow, that looks really cool. I might actually buy that, after the disappointment of the cheaper FSflightschool

Have you read the AOM? If you fllow the detail checklist it's not that bad. I especially like the way she handles.

I've tried and I could not get the engine No,2 to come out of its' prop braked condition.
I'm afraid I havn't used it in a while but I'll have another go sometime
Cheers

Parke the Prop, start engine and use as generator. When ready to start prop, make sure the engine starter knob is at both start, release prop brake, put throttles to AUTO and wait a few seconds then put them at FTR. Engine 2 should start no problems. Comw back to mw if it doesn't work.

John,
I had the same problem initially with the ATR. I couldnt figure out how to get rid of the prop braked condition. (If we are talking about the same thing here), I could only do it in the VC, not 2D cockpit. You simply have to click that brake lever behind the throttles i belive it is in the VC

Are you refering t the Gust Lock? That should only be removed when lined up on the runway.
