Frank,
Attached are a couple of checklists I made in 2000 when I got back into ser
ious flying. I updated them for the Europa and the new cell phone/iPad tec
hnology.
I put in my aircraft spares that I carry if I=92m going to Oshkosh or somew
here where other pilots are gathering so if someone has a problem, I=92ve g
enerally got the tool. On short over night jaunts to take a client home ne
arby, I don=92t carry all that stuff (or even flight plan that much).
On my cell I keep a complete list of the manuals for the aircraft engine, s
ome avionics, wheel parts, and the like. It is all on the cloud now a days
. I just like having a file.
The files have everything from medication, prep for cross country, maintena
nce manual, installation manuals (because I often forget how to set the dar
n fuel totalizer), troubleshooting stuff I=92ve done and the like which are
specific to my needs and my particular aircraft. They are just .pdf files
but in a pinch if you need to know what size seal is leaking on the 914 fu
el pressure regulator, you=92ve got it.
In the military we had what was known as the In-Flight Guide and as a new L
ieutenant that was always going cross country without a hitch, so the boss
had me make up a checklist for the students and IPs and it paid off. I gue
ss I just never stopped making checklists. Most of my clients are quite ex
perienced and dedicated pilots so I just never published them outside the s
hop as a serious pilot will plan his flight and fly the plan without incide
nt. New pilots or really rusty pilots, may find these checklists handy.
It seems if you prepare for your flight and carry spares you never have a p
roblem nor need all that prep.
Fly Safe,
Bud Yerly

Subject: Europa-List: Tool kit and spares kit
I have just finished my build and am thinking about what tools and what spa
res to carry when I finally do start spreading my wings? There was a thread
on here some time ago which I have a print out of and have come across an
article in an old flyer magazine but thought I=99d ask the question m
yself.............so what do you carry?
