Find online more easy to take off with Blenheim than offline (in Cross Country mission, due 3m/s cross wind).

50% fuel - 4 x 250 or 2 x 500 lbs bombs - fuse 11s for skip bomber.

Simplified procedure (this YT videos click, click... is for show ):

Fuel select inner
Throttle 10%
Select 1, ignition
Select 2, ignition
Select all, radiator full open
Rudder trim neutral, nose heavy
Await warm up - advance throttle in ~5% steps (better use keyboard than analog axis)
Rotate with elevator trim, using rudder to keep alignment
Wheels up, radiator back to 55%, prop coarse
Dive to seal level to reach ~220 MPH -trim to level flight, adjust altimeter - he say 200 ft but you are just over waves.

At ~220MPH use iron sight for drop bomb, when the tanker fill the circle, drop.

Tip: dont go with throttle above 55% on take off.

Bug: sometimes bomb bay open and close immediately with toggle command...
