 Main Panel
The Main Panel is real as possible in X-Plane. The displays and controls in this
EC-135 works like a small computer. The most things are, at the time,
not possible in X-Plane.

Middle Console
In the middle console I have changed something contrary to the real cockpit.
Many engagements are controlled with the display in the Main Panel.
I build in some extra instruments for better conrols.
The “Christoph 7” Rescue Heli ist not equiped with a autopilot system.
I build in a fictive Layout.

Main Panel:
-click and hold mouse button for 3 seconds a little right from the
Engine Switch 1 to start engine 1
-same with engine 2
-the engine switch now on flight position
In real EC-135 the engine switch has 3 position: OFF, IDLE and FLIGHT. The engine
starts automatically in the position IDLE. Before starting the pilot switch to Flight.
Due to X-Plane Limitations I compromise the start procedure.
To shut down the engine toggle the engine switch to OFF
Remember: If you start again you must turn the mixture setting to full rich.

Have fun and Happy Landing!
