I think it would make more sense with a set of hands...
The steps alternate from one hand to the other, so as you are running through the start up procedure your right hand can be ready for the next step while the left is doing the current one.
Just have to build your own cockpit for an ultra realistic engine start up procedure.
If I understand you correctly, you want to rub one out while flying at mach whatever in a fighter jet? I'm not saying that's a bad idea, I just don't know if it is the best idea.
