It would be most helpful if you could use some capitalisation and punctuation in your post as it would make it much more readable

What you describe sounds exactly right to me. What are you expecting?

You don't need to set your starting gate in PF3. Position your aircraft in FS, then start PF3. Load your flight plan in PF3, make any necessary adjustments on the PF3 waypoint page if you haven't already done so, and click Connect on the main PF3 screen.

ok I would like the virtual co pilot to fly the flight for me. Do i just turn on the autopilot on my sim aircraft ?

You need to set CP Mode to 3

Yes but once i do that what else do I need to do? Do i just need to turn the aircraft autopilot on?

If you haven't already done so, have a look at p. 143 of the User Guide (located in your PF3\Help folder) which provides a quick-start guide. Before connecting PF3 you can click on Options #2, then Advanced Options, and in the second column check the box 'Auto Tune Initial Facility'. PF3 will then tune the correct initial facility (e.g. Clearance, Ground, etc.) when you first connect. You make initial contact using hotkey 0.
