Note that this needs to be enabled so that you get external power. When you start FlightGear, the external power will be enabled by default. | |||
===Landing Gear Chokes=== | |||
Landing Gear chokes are triangular prism shaped blocks that're placed in front of and behind the landing gears to prevent the aircraft from moving. These chokes will also prevent the aircraft from moving in FlightGear and are enabled by default on start up. Note that to get the aircraft moving, you need to remove the parking brakes and chokes. | |||
