Rapid Start compressed air refill?
-
As I understand it, the Rapid Start systems uses compressed air from 4 bottles on each side. This is apparently enough compressed air for 3 engine starts per side.
Is this Compressed Air simulated as an consumable? Can it run out? and if so can you add an option to refill similar to the Chute / RAT / Emerg. U/C.
Thanks.

@Adam106 Thanks for the suggestion. Previously the air was unlimited but it is now limited to three starts per side like the real aircraft, with a recharge option added to the EFB:

Awesome stuff @Martyn - now if you have 5 minutes, could you please consider enabling full a2a refuelling in multiplayer between 2 JF Vulcans? I'll be free to test later today...
j/k (mostly) :-)
How awesome would it be though to have 2 people flying together and doing this...

@Martyn Did you just quickly knock up that change or was it already planned?
-
@Pilot-Pyles Not planned until I saw this suggestion but it was something I'd wanted to add. Fortunately that was maybe 45 minutes work, versus many hours or days for the other suggestions :-)
@Martyn I was about to say....that was quick for the flight sim world. :D

From the released version of 1.1 changelog - "Reset RAT, emergency gear release and rapid start air recharge options added to EFB to allow for resetting without having to restart the flight."
