Question: What does the Aux Release Enable switch (lower center pedestal, under the ECM/Dispenser switch, near the pedal adjustment lever) actually do?
I’ve searched, scoured the Hornet guides (both Chuck’s and ED’s) and cannot find the answer. Just curious, does anyone else know?
From the Hornet NATOPS manual
Do you have the latest Chuck’s Guides Hornet manual (6 Jan 2023)? It’s in there as well. Page 42
Basically, it serves as a backup means to jettison hung stores when NORM does not work.
It’s too late now for me to type ‘it enables the aux release’, but …
It enables the aux release!
Thanks Chaz! I did search both guides (and scanned through the NATOPS, but mines not text-searchable) and couldn’t find it. Appreciate it!
Just went back and looked again and it is in my copy of Chuck’s Guide (7/19/22), but when I searched it on my iPad it wasn’t working right for some reason. Weird! 
SCE to AUX
