• 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.

GrandPrix's done and dusted.... looks like it's time to have a stab at 'Waddy's' ...;)

The B-29 engine start up process from cold dark cockpit must be followed to the letter according to the reference start up procedures found under Aircraft _ Kneeboard _ CHECKLIST.

Also make sure each mag switch is put in the "both" position before you turn on the Master Ignition switch.
 
Been a bit 'busy' in real life [tm] .....stuff got in the way so have been unable to get back into the 29s paintings......yet

A link which explains the delay....
