Checklist

Post by Avio »

Been back at flying this awesome bird, after some near 10 years of on and off flying it !

The included checklist seems not quite complete, does anyone knows of one that is more complete? Thanks.

Take a look at this example:

I’m Still hoping that A2A will surprise Us with a fully functional p3Dv4 - v5 version. Absolutely brilliant creation in FSX and early P3D!

Thanks for the link, Jacques.

By the way, the shutdown in the list says to cut engine. Should it be to shut down by moving all 4 mixture levers to cut-off first, then engine cut-out?

For me, run engines to 1200-1500 RPM then mixture off, mags off, switches off. Some pilots move the throttles full forward after the mixture is cut.
