Checklists

In addition to this manual, you can find in-game interactive checklists, with dynamic validation and cameras management to help you complete each step.

Order of actions is very important for engines. Once starter is running, depressing the button on the fuel handle will initiates ignition, and pushing the handle will cause fuel to flow through the combined injection spark plugs into the combustion chamber.

At this moment, nozzle temperature should increase by approximately 100 degrees Celsius within ten seconds. Ignition button must be released immediately to avoid damaging the engine.
