Always, and I mean ALWAYS, set the Master Arm to ON before lining up for the perfect Durandall bomb run, otherwise you have to turn around and go back ..... gah! :doh:

LOL - Roger that, been there before! Burned! :bigeyes:

Now I just set up everything, I mean EVERYTHING, on the way to STP 2. Then I can get busy flying not pushing buttons closer to target. Even hit A-G button and set up weapons, then just select HSD in R/H MFD till closer to TGT.

I switch master arm on as soon as my flight is in formation. At the same time the external lights are switched off.

Just thinking - these days I am firewalling the throttle for takeoff then I am switching off lights, setting up my countermeasures panel, changing kneeboard page to Waypoints, switching to wing tank display ...then look up and hey rotate sweet. :bigeyes:

Naturally being a sim I'm sure that is what you actually do on the takeoff roll - not watch where you are going ...LOL.
