An awful long time ago, cars had a foot switch for the starter. Wild
suggestion or not, how you jury-rigged this wouldn't matter, as it would
be out of sight. Making your plane virtually theft-proof.
For 100% theft-proofing, use a reed switch. Then install one of them
little, super-powerful neodymium magnets in your shoe. Perhaps then an
insurance discount, like with cars today?
