It's a silly switch. Why can't they just have a push to start button (like my car, and every other helicopter I've flown), and a separate spring loaded 3 way switch for testing the magnetos? Then it would be impossible to take off with a magneto inadvertently switched off, no matter how many AR's you "bump" it with.
