Stop Engines before calling Ground Services
« on: February 03, 2016, 03:14:57 am »
Just getting started and must have missed something ...

Error above occurs with no engines running in the Majestic Dash 8.
I trigger it with GSX/show gsx menu ....

Appreciate any thoughts on how to move along ...

This has been discussed many times on the forum, for example here:

and here:

Due to the non-standard flight model of the Q400, the variables GSX needs to read to know about the engine status are not updated normally by the airplane.

You can use the CTRL+Shift+F1 ( default key combination to turn off fuel pumps ), which usually solves the issue.
