Sorry if this has already been asked (I couldn't find it).  I want to edit the htm file to add my own notes about the flight.  After I edit it though, it stops getting updated in subsequent flights.  Is this by design or am I doing something wrong  

Flying the Cub, the engine caught on fire.  There were no failures and I had monitor engines checked.  What is the threshold for an engine fire.  I assume it is running at full throttle x minutes?  It would be nice in the log if there was a note about that (or I could add my own notes).

Thanks,
Scott

Never mind about the .htm (I tried to delete this post).  I just was not editing the file correctly.  I still have the question though about how engine fires are triggered.

Thanks,
Scott

Scott - the briefing tool reads the html pilot log book and so I must advise that if you edit the log book it may render the briefing tool (and perhaps future FSFS features) unusable.

As to the engine fire, this should be prevented if failures are off. They occur just like other failures based, amongst other things, on random numbers generated in relation to the position of the failures slider.

Fires (and other failures) can be set by FSX all by itself (without FSFS).

Are you sure they were not set there?
