Ah, here is a common problem with FS and the way to fix it is to load the Cessna, turn off engines and battery but leave avionics on. Choose whatever airport you wish, then save the flight. Tick the make it default flight and then all your add-ons will work fine.


FWIW, I have the 152 at cargo ramp Prestwick, EGPK as my start up. Only 3 miles south of me as the crow flies.

Actually, you must turn Battery ON, in the default flight, for the 757 to have radio comms. Avionics "ON" does not solve the problem. This is why "Shift+M" works...it is the Master Battery switch.

Since I always start flights Cold & Dark, I prefer not to mess with the default flight and simply press "Shift+M".

If anyone who has the 757...and prefers 2D panel (the performance increase of the PSS 757 is very dramatic by disabling the VC) I have done it and would be happy to share the info. I used a hex editor to disable the VC (lights and shadows still work) and added 7 2D views, as the regular views come from the VC.
