Is it possible to set the simulator to spawn the aircraft with all engines started and ready? I'm fed up with having to start them manually. Some of my addon aircraft don't respond to the command Ctrl + E.

Thanks in advance.

Odd that they would have ad-ons that did that unless the read-me stated that.
I wonder if you have that set for failures or as your default aircraft.
If you changed it to another default that could be the problem.
Download and read this.

I know for a fact that Ctrl + E is the engine start and not set to failures, as I've assigned all failures to the numpad, so the the keyboard controls are not the problem...

Does the way the plane is configured to spawn have something to do with its Aircraft.cfg file?

I've also noticed that if I spawn in the air the engines will still be dead.

Strangely, I've never had this problem online...

Two that I've found on the net.
Ignore some of the babble.

I don't know if the first will work or is safe, your call.
