Captains,

Are you able to load the 737 in the Cold and Dark state? When I load her up I got engines running but gen's off the busses.

Mine always starts in a cold and dark setting, and that's because in FSX/FSX-SE/P3Dv3, I use the C172 in a cold and dark setting as the default flight, and in P3Dv4 I use the Piper J-3 Cub in a cold and dark setting.
So as you can see, the 737's setting is determined by the default flight setting.

Alternatively, you can load the 737-200 Captain Cold-n-Dark (KSEA) flight, then change the aircraft model/livery, and move it to the airport of your choosing.

Sadly the Cold and Dark presentation is not as good as it could be, various switches are in the on position which should not be so, and others are in the incorrect position, e.g. Pressurisation Panel Flight/Ground switch should be in Ground.
Some of these switches were for some reason incorrectly remodelled when V1.8 came out.

After loaded CS737-300 with P3Dv4 or P3Dv5 the plane starts with all gauges and FMS black or no powered. The Battery switch is On. Is that normal? If so, how to give power to instruments?
