on board to demonstrate their abilities to meet airman certification or
practical test standards.
While maneuver checklists should never become " crutches " to understand
the flow and process of a maneuver, they can become good prompts to
ensure a pilot isn't missing something along the way. Like all our checklists,
they aren't to be treated as mechanical " do " lists, but as " checklists " to make
sure we don't miss things that might cause us to conduct a maneuver out of
standard or compromise safety.
In my years as a designated pilot examiner, I can only remember very few
applicants who took advantage of making their own or having some sort of
produced maneuver checklists with them on their tests. There is nothing
prohibiting them, and honestly, I can't imagine a good CFI who wouldn't
want something like this to help them teach consistently. No one can
memorize everything. Use tools to help your teaching, learning, and testing
be more consistent and effective. One of those tools too few people use is the
maneuver checklist concept.
