MadBlaster's idea is good... here are two more:

1. The guy who built the cockpit must have used a USB-connected controller-board to connect the levers to the computer... Most probably, this board *also* supports a number joystick buttons (uusually 32). I guess that the fire-button is connected there, too. Connect one big red button to that board and use glovepie or autohotkey as MadBlaster described. Label that button "Press me!"

2. Write a small program that
a) uses DeviceLink to determine if the player has entered the cockpit and
b) then sends the needed key-combinations to IL-2
