When you first load up your flight make sure you press the YELLOW warning light as quickly as possible.

I think this is a slight bug

you wouldn't happen to know how to arm the autothrottle after turning off the engines and then, restarting them would you? it appears to do the same thing as before when i do that

I had this probelm and support just pissed me off so i just found out if you keep the engines on on the ground you can always engage the AT .

it's your generators, located on the overhead panel. Without them, no A/T. Of course when the batteries go dead, who knows what will happen. NO HOT FOOD!!!!
