JensenPark Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 secret is to hit "I" (start engine) three times fast, and keep doing that until it restarts. works as well when engine dies out from fuel deprivation when you hit those negative g's.

Shadow Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 This is what I do. Open the radiator flaps. Roll over into a dive (like a bomb drop in a Stuka) Start banging away at the 'I' key until the engine starts or you hit the ground (about 50/50 on that one). I find it helps to swear non stop until the engine starts or you die, whichever comes first Good luck, ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
