Given below are the interactable controls and explanation for each.

Here, you see the start-up related interactables. You don't need to do actually do anything because they are already on by default.
In order to turn it off...
- Turn of the Engine power switches (Labelled for the left and right engine)
- Turn of the fuel pump
- Turn of the generator
- Turn off the Beacon lights
- To turn it on again, follow those steps in reverse order.

These are just the light toggles.
- Strobe lights activate high intensity blinking lights like you'd see on real stuff
- Navigation or position lights are a set of 3 lights that help determine position turn these on during or after take-off procedures. Turn them off on taxi.
- Taxi lights are not always needed but majority of the time these are used. when to turn them on is self explanatory,

That is all the main stuff you need to know

Additional details

I mean... Do I have to even say anything more? Those sceenshots don't even have all the additional details that I put in, for example, the Flap type I chose to make... or the way I managed to pull of a system where you don't have to do anything; Just download and go. Heck, the spinners on the Prop actually spin... It's not a detail someone would immediately notice. This grew way out of it's expected complexity. More on that later.

About my Experience

You know how you normally expect to make a really simple thing but end up adding ambition to it and blowing it out of proportion for what it is? That is exactly what happened here. During some trying times IRL, I managed to crunch a lot of work into this. It's taken 80 hours off m life now, I didn't think it'd cross 20. It's crazy how fast it became so much more than just an Alper remaster. I guess I should thank simpleplanes and it's community AGAIN for helping with escapism, but now, like I've said before, knowing that this thing is off my mind and it's near perfectly what I wanted it to be, I'll be off to face some things IRL. Don't worry, nothing too major, I'll be fine... Even mentioning it here feels like bait.. My bad for that. But thanks, again, for being here. I hope to continue posting stuff like this, it was very fun to the in the end! (Exceptt the landing gear. GODDDD the landing gear sucked to do.)

I once again Silently ask that you check out the best craft I've ever made... A scifi plane. Check It out with yet another blummin link
