I have always developed my own check list, along with the factory AFM. Seems the flow just fits me better. I have flown with Pilots that write and memorize the check lists in a Poem, then recite the poem as they are doing the check list. Interesting..!! I have check lists for ground check, cockpit check, start check, taxi and take off, climb, descents-landing, shut down. Seems like a lot, but just 3 5X7 pages, excluding preflight check list, that I have on separate sheets. But, I currently fly a Piper Mirage, that has many systems. Dave B
