I've seen some threads about how to start this aircraft, and it seems complicated for the casual pilots (like me :-). Is there a way to make it so it auto starts with a key stroke or it is already running on the runway? Thanks.

Could some high res VC textures be part of that update? You can't easily read a good chunk of the cockpit. It is the main reason she doesn't come out of my hangar too often.
It's pretty easy to start as it is, there's a master switch on the right side-panel then you just switch on the fuel pumps and use Rapid Start to start all the engines.
I've never been through the long startup procedure though.
Regarding the 'purist' procedure to get the Vulcan running, watch this Youtube:

Note: not mentioned is the need to have the pressure head heater and master electrical switches turned on - both are located on the co-pilots side console. Switch these on first before following what you see in the video.
Here's a very abbreviated and simple rapid start checklist that works fine:
Before Start:
[Starboard Console]
Master - ON
Pressure Head Heater - ON
[Center Console]
Fuel Feeds (4) - AUTO
[Port Console]
Cross Feeds (2) - ON
Normal/Rapid Switch - RAPID
Rapid Start Button - PRESS
After Start:
[Port Console]
Cross Feeds (2) - OFF
Red Lights - PRESS to clear
[Starboard Console]
ID Lights - ON
Cabin Air - ON
Airframe Heat (3) - ON
The last three are superfluous ... unless you're in a real Vulcan ... but they add a half gram of realism.

Hi, Dave Garwood developed a quick start gauge which started and configured the Iris Vulcan for flight by lifting the co-pilot armrest. You can get it over on Classic British Flight Sim (CBFS).
Search for the thread 'Iris Vulcan tweaks'.

I've just found out the link to my quickstart mod over at CBFS was broken. I've re-uploaded the file so if anyone tried to download it and couldn't, please try again.
