I have a latching slide switch on the throttle lever itself which isn't much use for anything else. All my other toggles are each mapped three times over!

Its the grey thumb one on this. You can see the stickers on the rest of the switches colour coded to the modifiers.

You have to remember them somehow! To be honest its all pretty much muscle memory now!

I'm screwed if I fly anything else though!

Yep, I work on muscle memory. That's why when someone asked me ages ago if I had the mod that made the switch labels easier to read I said "why do you need to read them, I just know which one to flick by memory".

I will try and get on tonight for some practice, but to not mess you around, I'll go for a solo test and practice and arrange something solid with you for another day if I have issues, I'm just not sure what time I can, if I can, get on tonight, work is being s bear. Thanks mate, I appreciate the advice and help.
