Wouldn't recommend that. Its easier to switch profiles than to rebind every key -if you want to have specific profiles for bomber/fighter. AND another thing makes using profile(s) IMHO superior to just binding the knobs and keys: Pressing the i-Button and the button "just can't remember what it does" displays its function in the display so you don't have to look up that in the IL-2 options menu.
