As badly bugged as this is, I have it because it is the only sim of this aircraft at the moment. How the EHLL do i actually save a flight. If I just go to scenario/save from the 3d cockpit zi can save, but when i load the flight i am cold and dark with avionics off, I cannot reitialise them iether, does anyone have the secret? thanks!

Just when you think you have everything running some what better...
You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.
- November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.
If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.
To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.
Thank you for your support.

I have the latest P3D version but rarely fly it. . .most of my flying is done in FSX/Accel so I don't know how much difference there is when it comes to saved flights. Having said that, I've never had a scenario where a particular airplane kept me from saving a flight and coming back to it in the same way I left it.
If it's a flight I plan on continuing then I'll save it as is, close the Sim and locate the saved flight in the (C:\Users\"your name here"\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files (or Prepar3D V3 files) folder. I'll then send that file to the desktop as a shortcut and use that to start the flight. Works every time, with the aircraft set just as I left it. If you make it a default flight and access it from the Free Flight Startup window it will be cold and dark and also set to the current time rather than the time the flight was saved.
Don't know if that helps any.
