The realism settings change to standard everytime I start FS2000

From FlightSim

Q:

Could anybody tell me how to stop FS2000 from Automatically changing some of the aircraft realism settings each time I start the program? I would appreciate any help.

A:

Some of the aircraft realism settings do not save after sim is shut down, as you've discovered. The way I fixed this was to set up a flight with all my preferences, from aircraft and location, to panel status and realism settings. Save it as the default flight (or just as a selectable flight for that matter) and the realism settings are saved along with other parameters. If it's your default flight, then realism settings are as you left them when you restart the sim.
