S~! I have been having problems landing. Say I fly a Gulfstream to a concorde the same problem occures on any mult engine aircraft, this happens sometime around decent and apprach. I turn off AP, gear dn , flaps , brakes all as needed. I ajust throttle but when I look at the engine panel only 1 engine is selected out of 2 or  more. I end up having to try and land with one engine at full throttle or wher ever it happend to be  at time of occurance.  VERY VERY frustrating. HELP Please Sad

Do SHIFT+F1 and the engine number 1-4 and all should be fine as it'll go to minimum power.

To select all engines is CTRL E I think. Sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Its a while since I flew anything other than singles.

Ozzy's on the right track.

To control multiple engines at once, press "E" followed by the number of the engines you want to control

For example, if you want to control only engines 1 & 4 on a B747 (can't think why you'd want to Wink ), you would press "E14".

So to control all four engines you would press "E1234". Make sure you use the number keys above QWERTY, no the numerick keypad.

Hope that helps.

If you are using a joystick/yoke and I understand everything right... there is a default per say in FS2002 that allows you to select ALL at once, I believe it is simply called "THROTTLE" and you don't need to control them individually.
