Default FMB - scramble start, but engines OFF?

I've started to play around with FMB and am getting some very nice results with it. One thing I have noticed though is that it doesn't seem possible to do a scramble start with engines ON. Shouldn't the engines be on and already warmed up, as this is historically accurate? With CEM set, and a gaggle of Do-17's starting the mission just 30 seconds from my airfield, this is a serious problem! I have to sit on the runway threshold starting my engine and then waiting for it to warm up as I watch the Hun drop their bombs right in front of me.

So, can we PLEASE have a scramble parameter in the FMB to set the engine as 'on and warmed up', or have I missed something?

Thanks

BTW, the low level early morning mist is very very good
