More about Checklist
Checklists help crews confirm aircraft configuration before start, takeoff, landing or during abnormal events. Items are performed and verified under the applicable procedure.
They reduce the risk of omissions but do not replace system knowledge and judgement. Checklists differ by aircraft and operator; an arbitrary internet list is not an operational checklist.
