I have watched a tutorial online and also have read through the APU and STARTUP procedures in the printable manuals that come with the aircraft. Alot of it seems pretty straight forward, but I do get lost as well, I guess that I might be thinking I do the startup procedures correctly but I guess I am not....LOL! |
The difficulty, for me, is the names of the switches and knobs. They don't always match what the "Cockpit Tooltips" show them as. Nor do they tell you where to find them! This can lead me (and you) to searching all over the place for them. Sometimes they are not simulated so leaving them out doesn't matter. I did start to create my own Checklist for the 727, which included ONLY the ones that were simulated AND where to find them., but I never finished it. If I search my HDD's I might find my unfinished work. I did want to do that for all the Captain Sim aircraft I own. I guess once I learned how to get the 727 started without having all the avionics drop out, I couldn't be bothered finishing it. :(

I do best learning visually, and it gets kind of tough when you are trying to piece info together from a sheet of paper :P |
I only know of the ones that are provided in this forum. Sorry.
But Ron seems to know of YouTube videos. The only one I did, is for the B-52 because so many were having trouble getting it started.
