Default RV-10 Checklists

I am in between build projects so I decided to build out some checklists for a future RV-10. I made Normal, Emergency, Preflight, and a VFR/IFR cheat sheet for common reference items in the aircraft. These are designed to be folded in half and laminated for ease of storage in the side pockets. I attached pictures, but will gladly send the word document for anyone that would like to modify them for their specific aircraft (I left speeds off since I don't have an aircraft to determine those yet). These could likely also be easily adapted to other single engine aircraft so feel free to share. If you would like the word document just PM me with your email address and I will send them over. Hope this helps.

Default Copy Maybe?

That's a really nice check list, any way you might share?

Looks great..


Never mind... I suppose it helps to read the entire post

Question, how would you have these in the plane? Are they 4 separate sheets front and back or half pages on a binder?

Default Checklist

I prefer to fold them in half and laminate using 5 mil sheets. That makes them stiff but not rigid and easily stored in the netting or pocket near your calves.

Nice work! I have similar. On this topic, has anyone created the ACE files for the G3X checklist window? I am also the laminated paper type, but I have recently put my checklists into Foreflight and that is pretty nice... For completeness sake I was going to put them into the G3X as well, but I find having to use a Windows machine too frustrating (and I am being lazy) to create the files for the G3X checklists.

Looks nice. I have some suggestions, though:
1. Add ‘mixture forward after engine start’ to the bottom of the start list. In case it’s not obvious.
2. Change ‘transponder standby’ to ‘transponder on ALT’ on pre-taxi list. This is a relatively new change from the faa.
