Hi,

OK, no luck with the yellow "Air Supply" warning (anyone care to hazard a guess, it might help me?!).

Is anyone else getting the LIFTSPLR warning appearing on the LHS of the coaming moments after rotation?

I'm honestly following (or trying to) the check-list, so not sure I'm missing something.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Fabio

"Air Supply" warning means that you do not have the "Engine Air" on while your flying.
Once you are air born, turn off the APU and "APU Air", turn on the four "Engine Air" rocker buttons on the left overhead, and turn on your packs. That should make that light go out.
I'm not sure why the "LIFTSPLR" light comes on, but I just cancel it and forget about it.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.
My engine air is on (all four), and both packs are on too!
I honestly followed the tutorial several times as well as the check lists, so I'm confident that all buttons are where they should be.
I'll try a reinstall (as admin.) to see if this helps.
The spoiler light illuminates on rotation, but I do check visually that the lever is closed (off) and I pause to then look at the external model where the spoilers (lift and drag) are also closed.
I'm a confident simmer, and I'm able to run complex aircraft, so the 146 is happily within my ability level, plus I like this product very much - I'll keep trying!

Hi Fabio,

We updated the product (installer) on Friday afternoon. Have you tried using the latest version?

Thanks

Hi,
I downloaded, uninstalled (& deleted files), and reinstalled using the new executable, but I still get the LIFTSPLR light on rotation, and the AIR SUPPLY light on the warning panel soon after I switch off the APU.
Perhaps some switches are set incorrectly by default on my installation, so please could you let me know what the position should be of the a/c and pressurisation panels, or perhaps if you could send me a screenshot of the panel when it is correctly set. Which check-list step might I be missing?
Thanks,
Fabio

Fabio, try setting up the aircraft with the "Auto" feature and see if it still comes on.

I have the same error as well. I just assume it is another bug that will be fixed with a patch someday. For now I have tried to just ignore it. texerrn

Hi,
I tried autostart a few times (by going to 2D, clicking on AUTO on the icon panel, and then waiting.
The script finishes once the engines are running but it leaves the aircraft in the state shown in the JPG (see link).
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Fabio
