Flight Sim help. Change aircraft start location.

[Clint Herman 1083628 0]

I am new to VATSIM but no new to flying. This looks very fun but I cannot figure out how to re configure where my airplane starts out when I start flight sim. The rules say that you cannot start out on the runway but that is the default for flight sim. How do you change that.

Hi there Clint,

 

I have attached a photo below showing you where to change your start location;

Any more questions, feel free to ask

 

Have fun

Also,

 

Some Airports don't have ramps or parking locations identified in the dropdown menu. Simply start FS9, DO NOT Connect to VATSIM, go to top down view, slew over to a parking ramp or hardstand, then CONNECT to VATSIM.

 

Hope you have fun

hi,

 

you can also set your gate (as shown in first picture) and save the flight and click on set as default flight.

 

So everytime you start FS, you start off there

Thanks to everyone that responded, they all worked great, now if I could just figure out how to find routes listed somwhere.
