As a postscript, I'm not so sure that having detent stops for open dive brakes is really a good idea. I'll think about that some more. I may decide to remove the detents.

Thanks, Steve, for your post.
Keep the detents.

One day you will be distracted from your routine and you'll take off with the spoilers closed, but not locked, like that 20B that ended in the same Sage brush.
