If you pull up the shift-7 and its showing your throttles have a positive percentage (5 or more precent) and your physical throttle controller is all the way back to the IDLE stops, lemme know. Also, all things being equal and to help troubleshoot, can you make sure your FSX flight control settings in the FSX User Interface menus are maxed out (full right) on sensitivities and 5% (a couple micro notches from full left) null zones. Additionally, can you make sure FSX realism sliders are set to max in the SETTINGS/REALISM tab.
If you're still rolling on GROUND IDLE and your N2 says 66%, tell me your results and if you could give me a screenie that looks similar to what CTEC provided, please.
Thanks

Here is the screen shot I just took and it looks like yours. When I release the brakes I get about 3 seconds before I notice movement from outside the aircraft. How do I get the fuel tanks to default to full?

Good deal. It looks like you are at minimal fuel, so that's why you're rolling forward. When you're in-game in a Free Flight session hit the ALT button that will bring up the top menu bar where you can select "fuel and payload", then go to the tab where you see the fuel amounts... click into them and type in 100 percent in all of them, then click OK. You should be back in your jet with 100 percent fuel and shouldn't roll at GROUND IDLE. From the screenshot, it looks like you are soo light, ground idle power will start to roll you, so putting anything more than 30% should keep you stopped at ground idle power without brakes.

Thanks. I will try that out tonight. Shouldn't FSX auto fill the tanks when it loads the plane?

Sometimes not. Its not a given that FSX will default fill the fuel tanks on a flight. To make sure, you should manually fill them (using the previous method), and then save a flight, so you can go right back and reload it.
