Cant get engine to start

Underaged_pilot · 10-08-2006, 02:43 AM

Hey all,
When I go to start up its all fine until I have to "JFS to Start 2" I don't think I find it, but I see Jet Fuel Start 2 and this spools up the engine just fine, until it gets to 27% at which point it stays there for a while and then shuts down.

Also I run dual moniters and am unable to use both when in F4, what I mean is that the cursor cant jump, any help?

I've confirmed I'm pushing the right button

Problem was throttle ident, which is ALT-I

But cant find the NWS, arming ejection seat and confirming INS is aligned

I don't believe I've ever found a cockpit switch for the NWS. I've always used the keystroke SHIFT-/. Actually I always use the Missle/NWS button on my HOTAS but it uses the keystroke.

As for the ejection seat arming, you should find that on the left side of the cockpit near your left leg. It's between the kneeboard and the ECM control panel.

Finally I think confirmation of the INS alignment is done visually on the DED and the INS control is moved from ALIGN-NORM to NAV.

You can find a cockpit trainer and engine start trainer on the Lead Pursuit download page here:

The engine start trainer covers the ejection handle and the INS questions you raise. I hope this helps.
