No, I did not taxi backwards. Ha Ha! It is entirely possible that this was a fluke. My left engine was overheating everytime I got to the runway before the last update - it does not overheat now. I did notice that although it was smoking and running rough it did not register as a failure when I ended the mission. On the occasion I mention above I thought I had shut down the left engine and I was sure I was at a full stop at the seaward end of Manston airfield. Due to the bug I thought my engine was overheating as it was smoking and rough. I stopped the left engine but I still had both engines selected as I increased the throttle input and began to taxi. So there may have been a difference between the physics and the graphics. Either way, hard to test as the new update has changed the conditions. Left engine works fine now.... Edit: I went back and attempted to replicate the situation (albeit with the new update) and, although I was able to get a bit of forward momentum it was not enough to actually taxi anywhere - I just wound up going in large circles until my right engine burned out. Must have been a fluke before.

I disagree. I was able to taxi back with the right engine alone from standing still with the brakes on after a left engine failure. I was able (with difficulty) to taxi back to the ramp and request a 'repair engine' from the ground crew and continue the mission. What I did was; leave the parking brake on and increase power on the working engine (stick pulled all the way back), full rudder before releasing the brake and then, once rolling, tap the brakes whilst maintaining full rudder to try to run straight. It was hard to do (for me at least).

Confirmed as well. After F6 the ground crew says copy - then nothing. I did manage to push past the glitch by starting the left engine. The training program then continued and I was able to finish the mission.
