Oops!

Did you find out why the engine wouldn't start?

Hi.
Two things that might have stoped engine start.
1/. man fuel pump left sidewall, did not see this used to prime fuel lines prior to primer use.
2/. throttle may have needed a bit more open, i tend to have it just fwd of word closed
3/. did not notice number of blades prior to ign on , i usually count six
regards alan.

My guess on failed start was improper shutdown previously.

Because I fly other non-Accu-Sim aircraft I develop bad habits. Thus the title of the thread

I think if I can get in the habit of actually USING the checklists instead of flying by the seat of my pants I would run into less trouble.

What I LIKE about A2A , and the reason I put this video up, is that I actually LEARN something every time I fly one of these planes. With others it is just a game - screw up - hit reset - job done. A2A comes back to haunt you.
