    See's Simple Cessna in pictures,
    Confused on why it has 1135 parts,
    Realizes that it has so many details apon a closer look.

    Can the mixture be functional because when I flew it, the engine would start, regardless that the mixture lever was at FULL LEAN. So can that please be fixed(sorry, I know nothing about FT and variables). Still great build

    Edit: Turns out, the engine will start(but won’t get you that far) when the mixture lever is at full lean(and yes, I had to google that up), sorry about that. X-Plane lied to me 😭😭😭
