Manfred's Douglas C-117D

[thomas]

Hi
Does anyone here fly this C-117D in P3D?

If so, can you tell me how to change the fuel supply from mains to aux tanks, or how to crossfeed from port to starboard? I've looked around in the cockpit and I can't find any controls for this function.


regards
Thomas

On the Shift 2 panel or the Shift 4 monitor, you can click on the AUX tanks to turn them on. I think there was an intent to fix the panel to work right, but it didn't happen because the C-117 uses the BT-67 panel but there are differences to the way they work. I would go check the thread over at Sim Outhouse and see if there's been a fix posted because it's been a while since I've flown the Super Dak.

I actually found them: they're two little knobs on the rear end of the centre pedestal, just ahead of the two little cowl flap controls and to the left of the larger (aileron?) trim-wheel. I found them in flight and I wasn't going to mess with them then and there. I'll do that next time I take a flight in this plane.
