Hello,

After a cold and dark startup and going through the whole preparation, I got the instruction for startup and push. Well, that doesn´t work. The VC is off, Packs are off, bleed is set but the engine won´t spool up. No sound, nothing moving... no indication.

Without PF3, everything works normally. Just like it is described in the manuals. Maybe it´s something with the hotkeys. I don´t know where to look at.

Thank you for response
Peter

PF3 doesn't have anything to with engine startup at all. Nothing whatsoever. It's an ATC program.

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Yes that´s right. I did some new tests with that bird. Looks more like, "today I´m not in the mood to start" :roll: I checked the CaptainSim forum also for engine starting problems, but I didn´t see anything there. Well, I will see how it goes.

Another small problem concerning the pf3_display.exe. It did connect, but somehow it doesn´t do it anymore. I had two green lights at the bottom. A port change to 1011 did not work. Now it´s back to 1010. It runs on a client PC (Name has been entered). I am just about to explore PF3 and I like the way it goes now. Earlier (a year or two ago?), I had some probs with late ATC instructions changing FL. That´s not the case anymore. Really cool. You can achieve almost a perfect flight if you do your homework. Really really nicely done :D

Okay, everything is working fine now. Engines are back, PF3_display too. Now I can have fun :D

That solved the PF3_Display problem.
I am still working on the engines, but it looks ok so far.
