Anyone else using the JF MD81/82 ariliner?

Like the title says I have one small problem with the MD81/82 from JF.

I have followed the tutorial flight almost by the letter, but when I get to take off I still have two (or rather four since both of them are on both R & L side) messages left on the EOAP.

It's "R & L AC BUS OFF", and "R & L START DOOR OPEN".

Should they really be there, as far as I understand it should be empty if everything is set up correctly. To amend the AC BUS message I have tried to set the AC BUS X TIE switch in both positions, without success. I also tried resetting the L&R Generators. Any ideas on these messages?

The only step I have skipped in the tutorial is setting the T/O COND/CG bug to line up with the elevator trim marker, since that resulted in a drastic nose up movement, with tail strike as a result, long before I had reached Vr. I also felt that the indicated +4 elevator trim is a bit much. Had to struggle a bit to keep the nose from rocketing up after lift off.

It's "R & L AC BUS OFF", and "R & L START DOOR OPEN".

Hi,

Do the warnings disappear if you press Ctrl+E?

Thanks

I'll give it a try tonight.

After a CTRL+E start I had the L & R AC BUS OFF message on the announciator, but not the R & L START DOOR OPEN message.

I also did a new manual start up following the tutorial, and then the AC BUS OFF message wasn't there, so I must have done something wrong regarding the electrics in my first try. But the START DOOR OPEN was still present.

Just thought I'd let those of you that are interested know that this issue was solved with the SP released a few days ago.
