No easy answer to this. Each ac is different and you will need to study and practice. In a nutshell monitor engine coolant temps and rpm - manage throttle, rads, prop pitch, negative G effects.

2] how to start the engine.

See the gameplay section - excellent videos are there.

3] what controls should be assigned to a flightstick system.

Depends on your stick but flight controls -Ailerons, Rudder, Elevators, weapons triggers would be considered the basic essentials with View assignments next on the list.

4] why doesn't the bf109's flaps work.

Pass - I fly Red

5] i cannot assign a weapon loadout in a quick mission, only defualt or empty.

Default only at the moment, use FMB (full mission builder) to create new missions with your loadouts or use Notepad to edit stock ones. (see gameplay section)

6] sometimes i cannot assign a different plane in a quick mission, just reverts to default plane.

Bugged interface probably (haven't noticed that yet)

.

best of Luck
