You should add "set pitot heat to on" at the tail end of the guide and "check brakes" when moving off. They're covered covered in the pre-take off and pre-taxi checks but one of the challenges with the training mission sequence is that you go from engines running at the end of tutorial 1, to lined up on tutorial 2 so theres a few things like that which are missed. A lot of them I guess arent important, but pitot heat can cause you some large problems if you miss it.

Nice guide though, very clean and well set out.

Thanks for the very informative checklist. I’m creating a bullet point text only list for the start up procedure and your tutorial helped me to understand why the EAC switch would not arm until after several minutes into the flight. I was moving through the procedure to quickly and not waiting for the INS NAV RDY to blink at T = 4.0

Great work bavella! I use your checklist all the time.

 

I made a quick text only version based on yours for quick reference (in the mean time I know the switch positions, but still like to make sure I don't forget any steps).

Have a look to see if you like it.
