• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

It's doing that trick of starting a flight with the aeilerons locked & some assignments (including the ATC window) not working! Is it something to do with the default flight? :mad:

Remember this happening before & there is some quite simple solution, but I just CAN'T recall it! :confused:

Anyone? Need to get that Comet 1 down to Jo'burg... :redface:
 
As for the ailerons, it sounds like your autopilot is on by default; try the 'Z' key to disengage it.

The assignments not working might happen because your keyboard isn't set to the proper language. You can switch the language with the alt+shift key combo, the sselected language is visible in the toolbar and should be set to 'US'. Windows will install the local language as well so yours could be set to 'EN' I guess.
 
Thanks, van Orden! :wavey:

Just the Z key may unlock the whole thing... Will try it this evening & hope to report the flight if I can get everything going.
