Arink429 Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) Hi. What is the reason for positioning the CFT switch in STOP TRANS position before starting engines? Later on, both engines already started, the switch is set to ON. Thanks.

KlarSnow Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 IRL its for checking that all the fuel tank pumps are operating correctly before takeoff. In DCS with no failures of such things, there is no reason to put it in STOP TRANS unless you value adhering to a real life checklist. put it in NORM and leave it there. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its only for proper checklist, also fuselage tanks have priority during startup process (IRL).
