Finally, nothing beats a real model in front to make a virtual clone!..... that 's a long way!

Available soon for FSX, I promise you .... when?.. Soon ....

The answer last question !!!..... Handle

The famous lever that intrigues me is to implement a decompression cylinder via a cable that throws a hoop prevents the valves from closing .... This prevents auto-ignition after turning off the ignition ...So I have to add it on the model!
