Pre-launch Checklists.
Once the cable is attached the launch marshall gives
the 'take up slack' and 'all out' orders. The pilot is assumed to be ready if he has the cable attached. The pilot can of course abort the launch by operating the release at any time, provided he is not incapacitated that is.

What happened to one finger for take up slack and 2 fingers for 'all out'. How is it done now? Andy
