My stupid. I wasn't setting the ENG START to A, I was setting it to CRANK. Not sure why that makes a difference, but it does, and now all is working. Paul

It seems like something has changed since I flew the A300-600R months ago. I start the APU, turn on APU bleed, turn OFF ext. power, and start the engines and wait for stabilization on both. I turn the Ignition knob to OFF. I turn OFF APU bleed, So far, so good. But when I put the APU Master Switch to OFF, I lose all power in the aircraft. It seems like the engines are not generating power, or the electrical system is messed up. I've used this same process in the past without any problems. Any ideas what is wrong? Paul

No go. With only the inibuilds A300 folder in the Community folder, it still fails. While it is rolling, none of the buttons on the Ground Equip screen (EFB) function (i.e. can't be selected). Once it hits the grass off the taxiway, and stops, then the buttons become active.

Clearing the Work folder did not fix the issue. Here's a little more information about what is happening. I have a custom keyboard profile made for the PW version, and I use the ALT keys to jump around the cockpit. At Cork, these ALT keys do not work, only the CTRL keys, but the plane is rolling, so I don't know if that is affecting this behavior or not. When the plane is rolling backwards, there are no chocks under the wheels. When I press CTRL-6 to get to the EFB and the Ground Equip screen, when the plane is rolling, none of the buttons work. When the plane ends up in the grass and stops, then the Ground Equip buttons are functional and I can set the chocks, etc. I did a test with the FBW 320 at the same gate, and it was fine. Does this info. help? Paul

There is something else going on. The engines appear to be running (based on sound) and pushing the wheel chocks, which are visible. So why would the engines be running?

OK, thanks.

I'm using the default scenery. I just tried it at Gate 9, and no luck. The plane rolls backward, and when I go to the EFB, I cannot select the Wheel Chocks button. MSFS is only showing one Gate, the rest are Parking Ramps, but the same behavior happens on those also.

At airport EICK, the wheel chocks are not set at system startup (MSFS), nor can they be set in the EFB, so the plane just rolls backwards. This is the only airport to date I have seen this behavior. It happens with the GE and PW version.
