john edmond - checklist blues lyrics

ooh said the cfi
you gotta know your checks before you fly
many years ago i was in your shoes
i had the very first solo pre+flight blues

(ya just don’t kick the tires and get in, you know?)

do your pre+flight thoroughly
key out, master, flaps, fuel quantity
static drain and both wings check
ailerons, flaps, stall warning, pitot and vent
wheels, tires, brakes, tie+downs, hydraulics
static vents, prop check for cracks and nicks

secure yourself, flaps, trimmers and brake
radios, lights, and carb heat negate
master on and key in the socket
mixture rich, prime, and make sure it’s lock+ed
havе a look around and shout “prop clear!”
turn to start ’till firing you hear

ooh said the cfi
you gotta know your chеcks before you fly
many years ago i was in your shoes
i had the very first solo start+up blues

(now listen to that engine without your headset!)

after start, tear the thousand revs
oil pressure up in twenty secs
test magnetos for dead cut
airspeed zero and ah up
vacuum five and charging right
airfield elevation height

di set to the compass rows
turn coordinator, radios
t’s and b’s and circuit breaks’
radio for taxi and qnh
take a look around and throttle low
hand brake off, increase the flow

ooh said the cfi
you gotta know your checks before you fly
many years ago i was in your shoes
i had the very first solo taxi blues

( you gotta taxi that thing at a brisk walkin’ speed )
when she moves, test brakes with toes
if okay, then off she goes
while you taxi on the ground
make sure your instruments are goin’ around
park aircraft at 45 degrees
look out, hand brake, t’s and p’s

run+up power, rpm
look at your t’s and p’s again
test carb heat and mixture lean
test mag drop, hey, 50 between
propeller pitch for gauges three
idle speed, all t’s and p’s

ooh said the cfi
you gotta know your checks before you fly
many years ago i was in your shoes
i had the very first solo takeoff blues

(better double+check your pitot cover is off!)

trimmer, throttle, test mixture, mags, fuel, flaps
gyros, instruments, oh
harness, hatches, electrics by four
look out, brake off, and radio
clear for takeoff from the ground
away, rotate, you’re skyward bound!
brakes test, undercarriage up
power from mixture away from red arc
fuel pump off if one’s to be seen
all your gauges in the green
flaps away when climb speed’s right
switch off that ol’ landing light

ooh said the cfi
you gotta know your checks before you fly
many years ago i was in your shoes
i had the very first solo downwind blues

( make sure your wingtip is parallel to the runway! )

breaching test that pressure now
undercarriage, put it down
three greens, mixture, and carb heat test
flaps, fuel, select the tank that’s best
hatches and all harnesses tight
electrics, engine, and landing light
all the way to base take care
make your circuit nice and square
after landing and parking, carb fit, clean up
brakes, throttle, flaps and carb heat shut
rpm, right radios off, dead cut
mixture, master off, mags off, key out

ooh said the cfi
you gotta know your checks before you fly
many years ago i was in your shoes
i had the very first solo checklist blues

i had the very first solo checklist blues

i had the very first solo checklist blues, yes i had them blues
