I accidentally pressed E responding to an ATC message. But since I had the AP on, I didn't notice any change, but then I was approaching the runway and I shut off the AP, and my plane suddenly swereved right. I paused, and found out that my throttle was controlling only one engine. How do I make it so I will regain control to all the engines on my plane? I don't want to have to restart the flight, I mean, it was a 12 hour flight from San Francisco to Shanghai... It's my longest nonstop flight so far, and I don't want to crash...

Press "E" again and then, quickly, press, 1, 2, for two engines & 1, 2, 3, 4 for all four.

What do computers and air conditioners have in common?
They both will work perfectly, until you open windows.

Sometimes pressing F1 or F4 will also work in putting the throttles back in sync. 8)

Here are a couple other things to fix that problem.

1. Switching to another plane then back will synch the engines(not very real as it gets) or,
2. Install FSUIPC and you can map a keystoke sequence that will immediately synch the engines without switching planes.
