    Razbam Metroliner.

    A couple of questions about this aircraft,to any who have it.
    Is there an easy fly , eg. can you load the plane and the engine is
    running? I ask this as I am unable due to health problems to spend
    a lot of time on the computer.

    Second question. What is the glass like ? is it clear with subdued reflections,
    or is it milky or hazy?

    Regards Anthin.

    The Glass is clear with subtle reflections - the cockpit is nice with excellent lighting
    However - I have had it for 4 days now and after searching the internet and carefully reading the manual and checklists - I cannot start the engines to save my life. There is no quick start ctrl+E or similar option for this aircraft.

    I have had it with this one - and it is frustrating because it is a beautiful model with only marginal impact on FPS compared to equally detailed models from other sources.

    But - for whatever reason - I cant get it to light.

    Once the start flow is learned, the process is fairly fast start to finish. The below video is very informative to get you up and running as well as help cover additional systems:

    Sorry to report the same, switches hard to find and engine no start, and like Anthin, I don't have time to waste trying to find out how to get a plane flying---uninstalled it and went back to Majestic Q400.

    I've ditched this one too. When it's not fun to fly it's dumped or if possible I replace the VC with a simple one.

    I don't own this bird, but I'm considering it as well. Have any of you owners looked through the panel.cfg file for the gauges that control the start-up sequence and commented them out? I remember doing this for one of my previous payware purchases when I wasn't in the mood for a long start. Sometimes I like going through the systems, but sometimes I just want to fly. Commenting out certain gauges may help with this one.

    Switching from a default aircraft the Metroliner will be running already, you just need to start a couple of systems to get it flying correctly which is not all that hard.
    Intel i9-13900 Raptor Lake , Be Quiet! Dark rock slim cooler, 32 Gb Corsair DDR5 RAM, MSI Z790 Tomahawk motherboard, Asus RTX 4060Ti 16Gb, Thermaltake 1050 Watt PSU, Windows 11 64-bit 1 m2, 4 SSD, 2 HDD.
