Did you crack the throttle?
He most probably means the real Hurricane couldn't start on the main tank while the in-game one can but shouldn't: no engine running=no fuel pumps running=no start.

So they would start on the reserve tank because it was higher than the engine (in front of the cockpit) and it could feed fuel to the engine by gravity alone.

Has the Rotol Hurricane you fly had it's fuel system altered in some way, possibly a new electric fuel pump fitted? If not, I'd love to hear about it and now that you've told me that...makes me wish you were down in Tangmere for our meetup a few weeks ago even more!
By the way, we had a cracking time as always and the staff there were fantastic as usual!
Ok, now i'm confused. Is Clem talking about 200 real-life hours in a Hurricane, or the sim one?
