    I accidentally flew the Turboprop Bonanza with the fuel selector in the off position and the engine kept running and the fuel flow gauge read zero. A bug?

        In the piston Bonanzas there is no problem. With the fuel selector in the off position the engine stops immediately

          Fuel shutoff seems to be working perfectly for me. Do you have unlimited fuel enabled? Are you sure you're selecting the off position with the push-button safety? How about a hardware binding that's interfering?

            Hi Nick, thanks for your quick response. I neither can reproduce the problem again. Everything seems to work fine now. Nevertheless I'm absolutely sure I have flown with:
            -the engine running
            -fuel selector in off position
            -fuel flow and pressure reading zero
            -fuel warning light on
            -condition lever full forward
            -unlimited fuel disabled
            The problem initially occurred probably due to a wrong binding of the condition lever.
            So apparently it is possible to fly with the fuel selector shutoff, but when following the normal procedures there is no problem.
            Thanks for the help
