Taxi and Takeoff

For missions that start on the ground, TAW gives you several options. You can use Shift-S (time skip) to jump to the runway or even to an airborne waypoint. You can use the autopilot in "takeoff" mode to handle all the taxi and takeoff chores (go to Systems MFD numpad-0, click the A button to display autopilot options, click Takeoff, then press A to engage the autopilot). Or you can do it all the old fashioned way…
