With that being said. I can't fly with the default Cessna 172p at all. Not even in the "Start Up" tutorial when I follow every step as told. I've only accomplished igniting once when I just downloaded the software and the "Download Scenery Automatically" setting was unchecked, meaning the airplane was on water.
Here's some info which might help:
- FlightGear flight simulator V2017.2.1 (Not sure if this is the most recent update)
SimGear version V2017.2.1
OpenSceneGraph V.3.2.0
Cessna 172p version 2017.1
64 bit Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Engine primer count sometimes restarts back to 0 after going to 9 or 10
