Dash mounted landing checklist

interesting use of colors...  harder to accidentally omit one this way...

Not meaning to hijack this thread, but the idea of a panel mounted checklist caught my attention when I saw a "rolodex"-type checklist with a friend. And I thought of something similar, just based on the typical ad displays you see here in train stations. 

The contents are of course debatable. I chose them suitable for my M20J and fitting my individual breed of Alzheimer's - the items that may escape ME and then be critical. Things like strobes or landing lights are not critical, so they are left out. My three panel-mounted checklists read:

If you want, you can print the parts on your home 3D printer (use the attached STL file and scale down by a factor of 10). I am using a low cost Anycubic i3 Mega (bought it on ebay for just under EUR 160 before Christmas), and it worked just fine. 

Assembly requires six short and thin nails as axles, plus some glue and sticky tape. Assembly instructions are attached as well..And before you are asking, the word "Jäklyst" is NOT German - it is a tongue-in-cheek wordplay on IKEA :-)

Very crude choice of colour & format, I have a small "Fuel & Gear" post-it sitting near approach airspeed that is all I need

I may need to add real pictures of crash from fuel starvation & gear up to help with "emotional memory"

I did one for a Comanche years ago which roughly followed the simple white on black Cessna format.

Way cool, Fry!

Personalized to match one’s own memory requirements... 

Great for people that like their placards...

Best regards,

I love it. Very clean and concise.

These are the dash checklists that my Mooney has been wearing since the assembly line.

Would have used Green for gear and Blue for Fuel...

I painted my fuel pump switch avgas blue and my beacon switch red and my nav light switch green and red...

Looks like just a flat head machine screw.

I love the idea, it's ingenious and needs to be patented and sold at Sporty's, but with my luck I would get my finger caught in there and have to make an emergency landing. . . at least I'd have the emergency checklist handy tho.

It would also work well if you want to sell multiple advertising spots for passenger viewing.  Captive audience

FYI....since I have adopted the on panel checklist....I have used it every time...and for me it needs to be simple and sweet...no excuse for not following the content

M20 J POH shows factory installed cockpit checklist

They are also on the K but the position is too low to ever think about looking at these.

I like using the panel (pedestal) mounted check list. A little practice and discipline and it works well.
