This is my local keyboard.xml file.
There are some definitions in there that I would like to see
in the official keyboard.xml file. I suggested some of them
already almost exactly one year ago, but the suggestion was
dismissed with the argument, that the keyboard settings
should/would be redone very soon, anyway ...   :->

* shift escape ... reset FDM
  (Note: this doesn't work on IRIX)
* ctrl w       ... turn on wing leveler
* g            ... gear up
* shift g      ... gear down
* control b    ... toggle speedbrake (emh)


1. The p51d cries for a "Reset" key. Yeah, I admit that I've
   crashed some dozens of these beauties already, and yes, I
   am ashamed. Having to turn the menu on every time was too
   bothersome. Shift-ESC is still free and resetting is closely
   related to quitting. So this seems natural. (And don't ask
   why the command is called "old-reinit-dialog".)

2. Finally add a shortcut for the wing-leveler. Natural
   choice: Ctrl-W, which is still free and fits well with the
   other autopilot shortcuts Ctrl-[ANH].

3. Separate gear up and down into two different shortcuts.
   It really doesn't make sense as a toggle property. I'd
   even say, that this is the most important prerequisite
   for becoming a serious flight simulator.  ... Never
   land on your belly again, because you were actually
   retracting the landing gear on approach, having forgotten
   to retract it on lift-off.

Erik Hofman:
I've added Ctrl+B as the default binding for speedbrake support but this binding is overrruled by the p51d model to switch engine boost level.
