Yep, tried all this and no go... I can't start engines either from Cold & Dark... This REALLY needs to get looked at. I ALWAYS start up from C&D when I fly. Love the realism... I DO have the registered version of FSUIPC, but I don't think I should have to disable it considering all of the other payware developers have no issues working around it.

One other thing I noticed. I have my default flight set up as the Cessna 172, cold & dark. This way all of my add-ons will start up C&D that do not have configuration managers to do so. Such as the another company CRJ-2004. So I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it, but when I enter the 727 cockpit for the 1st time, the battery switch is in the ON position, but there is no power. I have to flip the switch OFF and then back ON to get juice flowing. Just seems odd to me...
Following that I can start the APU just fine and and perform other cockpit tasks, except starting the engines!  :(

Seems there are a lot of bugs running around in this aircraft that need to be ironed out, and the more I discover the more I am starting to get agitated with the money that I spent on this product. Even with the Spring Cleaning Sale, my US Dollar amount came to $68! That's almost up there with another company products!!

How do we make sure CaptainSim are aware of these issues so they can be ironed out in future SP's?
