I added an item to my engi= ne start routine ever since hearing about the first airborne tow bar inciden= t on the LML - may have actually been LNN.
The last step before hi= tting the start switch is to make visual contact with the tow bar in the bag= gage compartment.  If I can't see it I don't start.
