It's a Douglas DC-3. You know the Douglas DC-3. I can't be bothered to write out it's history here so look up the wiki if you're curious.

Re-ordered slightly for the people having trouble

1. Master Batt (overhead)
   
2. Cockpit lights in case it's dark (optional)
   
   
3. Set mixture lever to full
   
4. Flip on ignition (overhead)
   
   
5. Flip on right fuel cutoff (under throttles)
   
6. Flip on right magneto
   
7. Flip on right fuel boost pump
   
8. Hold the right starter button until Rpm reaches past ~216 and the engine starts
   
9. Turn off boost pump once rpm stabilizes
   
   
10. Flip on left fuel cutoff (under throttles)
    
11. Flip on left magneto
    
12. Flip on left fuel boost pump
    
13. Hold the left starter button until Rpm reaches ~216 and the engine starts
    
14. Turn off boost pump once rpm stabilizes
    
    
15. Set Rpm to 800-1000 for taxi (~15%)

Taxi - 800-1000 rpm (~15%), up|down or 1|2 for throttle up|down, you'll want to look high above the dash if you want to see forwards in 1st person.

Takeoff - 2750 rpm (100%), full throttle, use what flap setting you thing is appropriate for your load (0, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, full) 3 for gear.

Climb - 2350 rpm (?%), 90% throttle works, maybe try not to go vertical at this stage

Cruise - 2050 rpm (~69%), mess with the throttle for fuel consumption

Navigation/Autopilot - Behind the copilot there is a waypoint heading calculator. Input the coords of your waypoint, and the dial will tell you the heading to input into the autopilot. Just turning on the Autopilot switch will make the plane follow the current heading and altitude at the point you flipped the switch. Flipping the 'Switch to Input' switch switches the autopilot's input to the keypad to the right. If you need to use radios, the equipment is next to the waypoint calculator. Don't forget to activate the equipment power before trying to transmit.

! Caution ! - In Arctic weather, below 0degC, the Pitot-static tubes will get clogged with ice and malfunction. Make sure you have the Pitot heaters on.

Descent - 2050 rpm (~70%), maintain speed above 120, ideal descent rate of 500 fpm

Approach - 2050 rpm (~70%), 1/4 flaps 105 kn in downwind, lower gear with 3, set to 3/4 flaps before base, turn base at full flaps, speed 90 kn, ~60% throttle works

Landing - 2050 rpm (~70%), right before touchdown flare a tiny bit (don't overdo it), drop the throttle to 0, space for wheel brakes, space+2 toggles the parking brake if you're doing a risky one. Reduce the rpm back to 800-1000 rpm (~15%) for taxi once more.

Use external lights when you see fit

Each dial in the cockpit is labeled, so have a look around and remember where everything is. If you have an engine failure, you can hit the prop feather button for the failed engine, just for realism.. I doubt it actually affects the aerodynamics.

The livery is slightly different to that in the images, it is an updated model and now has the Breitling world tour paint scheme.

(I hope), seats 18, C-47 version (not updated) seats 24 in benches lining the cabin

Rear baggage compartment can fit 3 crates and 4-5 small closed boxes from my testing.

I haven't tested it with the lower physics settings but I'd recommend using full physics

That's just about all you need to know, so if you're brave enough to take this rust bucket flyin, good luck, soldier.

Perfect for flyin round volcanoes tho ;)

btw don't forget to read everything carefully, it won't work if some steps aren't done, realism and all

and holy hell a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ stormy it just went and did it validation confirmed
