 Fail any aircraft component with just one click manually or define detailed failure conditions like fail if aircraft is above a specific altitude or airspeed.
-===== Core Systems =====
+:i: Note: By default the flight simulator standard failures are shown here, but FS-FlightControl does have support for extended aircraft failures of several third party products. You can choose the failure source in the [[features:settings#failures_source|Settings]] module.

+===== Core System Failure =====

 In this area you can fail all core aircraft systems like engines, electrical system or brakes.

 ===== Failure Conditions =====

 In case the failure is a fuel leak you will see another option where you need to enter the amount of fuel that is lost per minute.
-To enable a failure click on the ''Enable'' button. If you click on an already active failure you can disable it here again, too.

+===== Random Failures =====
+Beside triggering specific failures directly there is also an option to let FS-FlightControl generate random failures.
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/failures/random-failures-button.png?nolink|}}
+Therefore click on the button ''Random Failures'' first.
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/failures/random-failures.png?nolink|}}
+Then first select all failures that should be included in the random failures.
+After that you can define the conditions when random failures may occur. The condition settings are the same as for the normal failure conditions above.
+For fuel leaks you can additionally define a range of fuel loss per minute. The exact value then will again be chosen randomly within the defined range.
+Finally you have to define the average number of failures that should occur per hour and the minimum time between two occurred random failure.
+:i: Note: Keep in mind that failures number per hour is just an average value - everything is still random. You can also use decimal number (smaller than one) to get even less failures.
+===== Clear All =====
+{{https://www.fs-flightcontrol.com/img/manual/features/failures/clear-all.png?nolink|}}
+Use the button ''Clear All'' to reset all failures again.
