BenFromMaine Posted July 25, 2022 Report Posted July 25, 2022 I looked at the manual and didn't find any air restart procedures. Anyone know how to restart failed engines in flight?

tkyler Posted July 25, 2022 Report Posted July 25, 2022 X-Plane's "engine start" system is a bit simplified relative to real engine dynamics....it never really took into the account the dynamics of an air start and the differing forces at play relative to a starter. The procedure above will work, but I've found its best to hold the unfeather button almost till idle....and even when you let the button go, you'll probably see a quick drop in RPMs before the engine "kicks back in". -TomK
