I'm nearly certain that I saw a scene in TGWP where an airplane is propped and the pilot reaches over to work the ignition switches which are located on the outside of the cockpit. It's not the first time I've seen mag switches on the outside of those old-timey planes=2C either. Now there's a way to ensure that the propper knows the condition of the mags=2C hot or cold: they are clearly visible to him/her.Oscar ZunigaAir Camper NX41CCSan Antonio=2C TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________
