Description: Development of the Meteor began in 1940, although work on the engines had been under way since 1936. The Meteor first flew in 1943 and commenced operations on 27 July 1944 with No. 616 Squadron RAF. The Meteor was not a sophisticated aircraft in its aerodynamics, but proved to be a successful combat fighter.

I was wondering if it was possible to apply the correct icao type for the Meteor? Currently the `icao_type_designator` is erroneously set to `single seat jet`, which results in model matching using a Beech Bonanza instead of the same aircraft if someone else loads in with the Meteor. We found setting the `icao_type_designator` to `METR` fixes the issue.
 
Starting the engines without Ctrl E

Hi. Love the Meteor and I am wondering if there is a technique to start the engines without having to use CTRL E I have some switches which i have bound to control engine starts and initially it appears to work, you can here the engine spooling up but it just stays making that noise and does not fully start up. I tried using the mouse over the starters as well and the same happens, only way I canm start it is CCTRL E which I hate doing as for me the engine starting sequence is a big part of the whole flying experience.
 
New model problem

Hi Rob. Love the Meteor and have been trying the new model out. I love the new textures .In the new model when I am on the ground or in flight in the outside view there is a beam of exhaust gases projecting down and forward at about 45 degree angle. Still trying to figure this out and am only using default liveries for now. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this. It projects from around the area of the intakes.
