Cold and Dark Panel State for the PMDG 737-700 / BBJ / BDSF Freighter
This panel state switches off a few extra things on the overhead panel including the Voltmeter switches, Standby Power Switch, Air Bleed switches and Position lights.
The transponder is now automatically in Standby, and by default set to 2000.
All airframes will have 15% fuel remaining, and will have 0 passengers and 0 payload/cargo loaded.
The ground power unit is already in place waiting for you.
Installation Instructions:
