What is the key command to turn smoke on and off??

Thanks

If the model has one... it's the "i" key.

Thanks. I'm in the Cessna 172. Guess it doesn't have smoke.

The only default plane with smoke is the extra 300

Hi Kitty,
that sure as heck ain't the default smoke. You may notice all the blinking lights around you aircraft and the paniced shrieks from your passengers. That is because your engine is on fire. No need to panic. Just shut down the fuel valve and pull the extinguisher handle in the overhead panel. Thank god that happened on the ground.
Now your FAs get to use all those skills they leared in emergency procedure training. Deploying the slides and organizing a somewhat orderly exit of all passengers out of the plane.( No Sir you can not take your carry on with you)}>
I hope you insurance premiums are all payed up current otherwise this can be a major headache. ;-)
But seriously I would guess somewhere along the lines you must have copied a very nice effect into that default cfg file. :-)
If you're a curious kitten open it up and look in the effects header.

(EFFECTS)
wake=fx_wake
water=fx_spray
dirt=fx_tchdrt
concrete=fx_sparks
touchdown=fx_tchdwn, 1
This is what the FS cfg had in there. Anything else is aftermarket.

Happy Landings
Sunny :-cool
