"DO NOT use this for REAL LIFE USE!"
everyone knows that future pilots in the real world come here , to learn seriously how to flight!

Good walk through. At least someone does it right

"DO NOT use this for REAL LIFE USE!" If someone can start a 172 based on this tutorial they deserve whatever plane they're stealing. The 172 is almost without comparison, number one in the general aviation world for being the hardest to start. They're a rightful pain in the ass.

@sproutit1 I always watch for a positive fuel flow rate, then shut it off. Yeah, it's probably about 4 seconds actually.

Thanks for the vid. Would be best to leave avionics switch off until after the engine is started to avoid possible electrical probs.
Hey how do you start in the parking space? when ever i fly, it starts me out with a warm, running engine on the runway... please answer

@MrJp990 When you select an airport there's a drop down box that lets you select a parking space if there is one, to shut down the engine just cut off the mixture.

Hi this was 2 years before I started my PPL lessons and I fly the 152 and it doesnt have a fuel pump switch, I don't know about the cessna 172, the checklists/procedures used were from the internet, this is not real procedure. If you want the real procedures you'll want to get the Pooley's checklist which I use irl on my c152, thanks
