How to unlock the Short Stuff achievement in Microsoft Flight Simulator - Definitive Guide
This solution was written long ago, when it first released for the PC, and a lot of patching has occurred since then. Some users are reporting it no longer works. I'm leaving this here for reference.
Completing landing challenges is the most efficient way to get this since it also adds to other achievements, but there is an easier way to get this if you just want three achievements quickly.
- Turn of all assists.
- Select any aircraft, doesn't matter which one
- Select WX53-Bugalaga as your arrival airport
- Select WABS-Sinak as your departure airport making sure you start at a ramp. That's important since starting on the runway already has the engines running and that voids the 'no assists' portion.
- As soon as you are in the airplane, choose to 'Travel to -> Taxi' and respond to the prompts.
Achievement should pop during the loading screen.
This will also unlock

Is it the first taxi or last taxi on the list of options. Can't seem to get it to work. Turn off engines to end mission but no achievements

Yes every time you last taxi it loads you in with everything running
