Reducing Farts to 3 killers...

You know, Weido, that guy with gastric problems could reduce it to 3 killers.
Make him to be just a FAT guy with his gas and musical problems...

The SPEEDS -
In my plane, 747-200. we have 5 white bugs on the ASI.
Prior to the initial cockpit set-up, they are "pressed" together...
Then we set the speeds bugs to V1, VR, V2, V2+40, V2+80...
The inner bug (speed command) is dialed to V2+10.
So no need to still be concerned about SPEEDS. they are selected.
The check-list challenge "FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS" is complied by "SET/X-CKD".
After landing, by the way, we press the 5 bugs together again.

The RUNWAY (heading) -
We set the heading bug to the departure runway QFU.
This sets the bug on the compass. It will match the runway line-up...
That is also part of the item "FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS" as "SET/X-CKD".

So now, your guy who farts, is just having a FAT weight problem.
And you no longer need to go on oxygen... no perfumed deodorant needed.
KISS - Keep it simple, Stupid...!
