Time for the engine start-up | e.g. flight: Mooney Bravo Flight Simulator X Guide

We begin with enabling the fuel flow, switching on the rotating beacon, the fuel boost pump switch and then we push the mixture control all the way in. Now we push the throttle very slightly and turn the starter key until the engine starts. After the start-up it's time to switch on the alternator and to open the throttle a little bit more to warm the engine.
After approximately 5 minutes the engine should be warm enough to fly. Now we can request the taxiing clearance.
We are cleared to taxi to the holding point at runway 25 via B3 B4 A taxiways. If we are not equipped with the airport map then it is recommended to use the taxiing aid by selecting the Progressive Taxi option in the ATC window and taxiing over the displayed arrows.
