1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted April 3, 2019 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted April 3, 2019 Amazing how little happened while I was randomly flipping switches and pressing buttons in there after Painlesss' landing It's a hoot though, that thing... So, these are the I items got under contriol now: - Instrument and cockpit lighting - Flares (In pairs or all in one go) - Chaffs - Emergency Canopy release. - Reading the fuel gage - Frantically pressing the 'Master Caution' light. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
