Cheating at work right now so I don't have the manual in front of me.  Can someone please tell where and how to apply the parking brake.   The few times I used the C 130 (Still New), I experienced difficulty in keeping the C 130 E at a stand still, I had to jam down on my foot pedals.   i have also noticed that she taxi's really fast. I am thinking the throttles are not in the right posistion.

Mark, as always thanks. I do have a question though.  I have noticed that the C 130 depicted in the sim seems to move out quite rapidly during the taxi. Is there a throttle setting that I am not aware of?  All I can say that on the many C130 rides I mostly remember the hot sweaty taxi and very slow taxi to runway for departure. I would take the 93 minute trip from Baghdad to Kuwait and back twice a week.

I usually find that if the top set of gauges (as attached) is above the settings shown then the aircraft tends to run away from you. If it is to high (above 1.6/1.7) then hit Ctrl + E and after a few seconds it should drop down to 1.5.

As I tend to use Multi Crew Experience in having the Co-Pilot start the engines I always end up hitting Ctrl + E...
