I don't see one...only mention how important. Does anyone have a checklist they would share?

Thanks

Check "POH" section on "home" page

Some good ones on there -- I found one there and modified the entire POH for my aircraft.

Pre flight and start up checklists sort of write themselves, as you walk around the plane, and flow through the cockpit to start the plane.

For take off,

C I G A R
T I P - L


C ontrols

I nstruments

G as

A ttitude (of the plane)

R unup


T ransponder

I nterior secure

P assengers briefed


L ights

Have the appropriate sub-items for your plane (like, for me, Gas means mixture rich, electric fuel pump on, fullest tank selected).

Works pretty well for most airplanes, in a pinch.

Likewise, G U M P S for landing

Again, other phases of flight sort of write themselves depending on your airplane's configuration. I can shoot you what I have for my plane, which you could modify, if you like.
