Thanks for this excellent work 2GFlea. These checklists will be a great help, accurately flying the aircraft in COD.

Great document! this is really going to be helpful. Keep up the great work.

BTW: I noticed you mentioned Molson beer? You know that is Canadian and not German, right? Or have you been drinkin too much already?

Actually, this is a whole lot better than merely 'nice.' It's brilliant. Definitely worthy of a sticky.

Molson, Corona, Bud Lite, Paulaner, Theakston's, Fosters, Canadian, German, British, Mexican, Belgian, whatever... Beer is Beer.

I also found the information on ammunition and the various bombs and fuses to be a little on the weak side. These checklists are my attempt to remedy some of that.

The checklists and other included data are based on historical documents and manuals, and therefore may not be optimized for in game use. However, they are better than pure trial and error. Please give them a try.

My plan is to provide updates whenever significant new material is added to the sim. This includes new plane types, additional weapons or ammo, or significant changes to FM or in game operating procedures. I encourage you to provide criticism and to identify any error you find. I will collect all comments and will make appropriate changes as I post new updates. I have the MS Excel file that the checklists were published from but I'm not posting it at this time. If you wish to have the Excel file, please PM me.

Please feel free to post on other websites or forums. There is some copyrighted material in the file, so please, do not attempt to sale or use for any financial gain. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the checklist.

For the mods, if this would better fit in one of the other sub-forums, please move it. Thanks.

Fantastic piece of work 2GFlea, thanks for putting all that effort in.

One small issue I noticed....in the pre-flight section where the prop is being tested it says "Reduce Pitch Slowly until -- 2400 RPM". I believe you are starting out with fully fine (low) pitch in which case you are actually Increasing pitch to bite more air and reduce RPM, not Reducing pitch.

This sim has been crying out for a manual like this. Well done.
