I believe the A-10 is included in the 9.10 base package and was just wondering if the auto-takeoff function still works ok? It may have needed tweaking to replace references from agl to gear-agl, after the agl property was changed, but if this has been done then trying the A-10 auto-takeoff function might shed some light on this rather strange problem.
