Jim Meade Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Do any of you use digital checklists on your Dynon or other digital devices? Could be on the Garmin or iPad or whatever. When I bought my 210, it had a checklist on the Stormscope that at first I disdained but learned to really, really like. I have a very good paper checklist for the CTSW. Now that I'm getting more time in the plane and getting a feel for how I tweak and modify the checklist, I'm thinking of adding a couple of checklists to some of the avionics or the iPad or whatever. Some features I'm looking for are the ability to make a number of small checklists, such as Pre-takeoff, TO, climb out, cruise, descent, landing, taxi and post landing. and emergency. Now, obviously, some of these would be combined but the feature I'm hoping to get feedback on is the ability of various programs of equipment to split up the checklists into several that are easy to access. Right now, I have a Dynon 100, 120, Garmin 496 and iPad and Android smartphone. I'll be getting a Dynon SkyView soon and would really, really, really like to get a Garmin 430W, so those are the platforms I'm most interested in, but I'd be glad to learn from any experiences.

Jim Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 I set up the Dynon and used it for awhile. Didn't like pushing buttons and losing the flight instruments. I have a nice laminated cardboard checklist that I'm very happy with now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppercity Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 I made a full set of electronic checklists for my LS and uploaded them to the Dynon. I like it on the panel especially when students drop the paper checklist under the seat. I can email you a copy of the file I use and you can upload it to your D100. Skyview currently doesnt support checklists but from what I understand its coming, just not a priority for them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Meade Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Eric, Yes, I'd be happy to get the list. Thank you. jnmeade@southslope.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppercity Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Jim, Checklist is in the mail. It may show up in your email as a "quick office"file in the subject, that is how my iPad sends it but you should find a .txt file attached.
