Norwenkel Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 How to set and import the simbrief weight and fuel values when starting direct on the runway? Using the MSFS toolbar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarom310 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The toolbar didn´t work. I tried it yesterday for hours but with no success. It´s a little bit like the Fenix A320. When it was new you couldn´t load the flightplan in the "ready for takoff" mode. But they fixed it and now it´s no problem. I think iniBuilds made it intentionally impossible to load the aircraft on the runway. But they forgot that many simpilots start on the runway because they don´t like pushing all the buttons and taxi all around the big airports. It´s a flight simulator. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmplayer Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 (edited) It does work for me the last time i did.. Did it like this ( workaround ) So if you on the runway trie it this way: First shot down the engines than go to the EFB load your Simbrief flightplan and load the fuel to the plane. You should now see the upper fuel counter goeing slowly up to your pln fuel. Now go and load the panel state "ready for takeoff" the engines slowly goes to work and the full is still count to the your desired fuel. If you load your flightplan into the FMC before this action you have do that again so the better way is first load your fuel than start the panel state and than set up your CDU, worked for me, so hope this helps.. cheers 😉 Edited January 6 by pmplayer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you guys shut down the engines ? I do it with the ENG1 and ENG2 shut down on the pedalstal and like this it works OK for me. And after ca. 30sek i start "Ready for Takeoff" panelstate on the EFB, the fuel counts up to my settings and i am ready to go.. cheers 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After shut down the engines did you wait about 30 seconds before you start the engines over the panelstate and do you see in the upper right of the EFB the full counter are fulling ? cheers 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
