Wings or bomb bay?

[Karnak]

default on A-20 is allways bomb bay,  whats so hard about that ?

Because it is not consistent across the aircraft that have both internal and external bombs.

HTC will give you this option at the expense of losing the F3 option.

Are you up for that trade?

And your basis for this comment is what?

I just always make a huge motion of hitting the Backspace key on takeoff when I up an A-20.  This reminds me to drop wings first, and it helps me remember that yes, I already selected my underwing bombs...  Not a huge inconvenience.

I do the same thing, wil3ur. However, in the heat of the moment, sometimes I forget which I'm selected on! Or perhaps I THINK I pressed backspace, but really that was on the previous sortie (d'oh!). I do also take the "open the bomb bar doors regardless" approach - however, I prefer to drop wing bombs first. I think in reality the A20 pilot would have a selector of some sort. I think we should have the same luxury. Reasonable and easy to add!

I used that comment do detect people with zero sense of humor.

Thanks for stepping forward.

1..saw this happen yesterday after reading your post. you are right and this is a great idea!!!

Currently there is no differentiation between having wing ords or bomb bay ords selected (unless they're different lbs or type). The two aircraft which I see this as a problem is the Mossie and the A20. When upping with equal ords under the wings and in the belly there is no way to tell which set you're selected on. Can we have an indication added? E.g.: Up in A20 with 8 x 500. 4 in the belly, 4 on the wings. When selected on the wing bombs add a "W" after the selection. So instead of
B50 | 4

You see:

B50W | 4

And for the bomb bay:

B50B | 4

This is a good idea.

No you did not, you were trolling.

Thanks for the input, folks. Glad to know we all agree that this would be a good feature! Seems simple enough to implement, no?
