For in-air start sequences in some aircraft, you can pass zero as the second argument of the <tt>complete_checklists</tt> function to expedite the sequence. All items in the checklist sequence will be executed without waiting for previous items to complete. Note that this means the checklist sequence is never considered to have failed.
