I for Ignition

[Jebus23]

Hey guys.

It is a real loss of immersion when, for example, in the hawker hurricane I set fuel cock, magnetos, radiator, propeller pitch check, mixture to rich, magically start the engine with 'I', check temps etc.

What are you actually doing when you press 'I'? I have managed to set up my peripherals to be able to fly with full realism settings without ever having to touch the keyboard. Is there a location on each aircraft for an ignition switch? How come I cannot find any? I saw a spitfire years ago in Hertfordshire in England and I distinctly remember an actual ignition with a key and everything.

Thanks.

P.S I only really started playing this game properly after team fusion patch so if that is the cause of something I apologize.
