Starting The Jet in eFalcon 1.09 - By Mark "Frugal" Bush
This guide is aimed at those using the 1.09 cockpit switches to start the jet. I had a little difficulty initially navigating the cockpit to find the switches and so created this guide. This deviates from the manual slightly but works equally well and saves on a few view changes. I have included the keyboard presses for those that prefer to use them. Click on the images for larger versions.

Your Jet is now ready to taxi to the runway. You should still have enough time to set your Bingo, ALOW and other preferences via the DED before requesting Taxi from the tower.
