Pylon safety hatches stays open until take off

Hi 

I noticed since the latest update, that there were safety hatches on the A/A missile pylons. What an attention to the details! But they will stay open until takeoff. It would be more realistic to close them at the end of the startup procedure. Or to be more accurate and realisitc, This should be done at a waiting point just before entering the runway. To be perfect we should have a guy who closed them .

IRL it's closed by the relative wind (speed), not manually.

GBU-24 + Super 530D at the same time ?

Ok. Didn't know it about the M2000. I better knew the Mirage F1 where they were closed manually. For the GBU, I was at rearming, so the crew didn't have the time to finish the work as I took the screenshot
