Use diesel in your turbines. You will know right away that you had a flameout. In my kingtech 260 the other day, it looked like i turned on my smoke system for about 2 seconds. I was like "I didnt do that." Turned it back to the field, luckily auto-restart was activated and I was able to get the turbine back and setup a nice approach for a landing.
