I really hate to ask this again, but was wondering if there was a solution found since I posted it some time back.  Er, about how to start the 737 manually. I was given the basic startup for other planes (which I appreciate) and it worked on other planes indeed, except this one.  I googled it and still nothing.  This is the only aspect of flying the 737 I can't quite nail down, ironically it's starting the plane.   Any help is again appreciated  Smiley

Here's how I do it.

Make sure mixture/idle is full forward (prop rpm too, as on some jets it can be a fuel cut-off)

1) Battery on
2) Start left engine
3) Engage left alternator
4) Start right engine
5) Engage right alternator

There is no master-avionics switch (that I can find) (I'm working on adding one), so you need to finish up with the old "Ctrl+E"  to get the avionics running.
