But I don't want to kiss yer arse

Nor, indeed, having looked at your pic , any other part of you

This is why I love being a member of our group. I thought I had a decent enough Constellation, I admit it's been a while since I've flown it. But I thought I'd better check this suggestion out and lo and behold I'd somehow missed this! Now I've downloaded it and it looks superb. As a stubborn FS9 luddite I love it when something 'new' comes along, even if it's been out for years! Problem is, I can't start the engines...(Yes I've read the PDF manual). I suspect there's some sort of conflict with my Saitek yoke, oh well...

Hmm. Not sure why it wouldn't start. Best option is to manually control the levers at the FE station with your mouse. Engine 3 first:

Only other thing I can think of is to make sure you have AUTOMIXURE turned OFF in the FS "Realism" menu. You could also try starting the engines at Full Rich.
