That would be me.  I was going to look into a couple of duplicate mappings as
suggested the other day on the list.  When I do I'll see if I can come up with
another idea.  My preference is to not change much in the way of mappings, but
the booster is fairly new.

BTW, do the spoilers need more than just a toggle?  From photos, I get the
impression that airliners in particular can deploy some or all the spoilers.
Is that true?

Spoilers are deployed (very) smoothly. The amount that they are open sets the descent rate.


In a sailplane, a pilot has one hand on the stick and the other on the spoiler handle.

Regards,
Michael
