Real World CRJ-200 Checklist?

Does anyone have a pdf or some file of a CRJ-200 checklist from the real world; like an airline?

Google doesn't come up with much beyond sim stuff which is fine but I'm kind of looking for more realism. I've read/heard of some people having real world checklists but I'm not sure if they are allowed to be distributed. Maybe it's against airline policy which is reasonable to me.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Try this one:

No idea if it is real or for sim.

Bear in mind, most airlines don't have the IRS in their models, so the IRS alignment step that takes place with the JRollon CRJ200 will probably not be in their checklists. Have you tried the ones that come with the JRollon CRJ already?

Ya I have tried the list that comes with JRollon's CRJ but modified it a bit with takeoff and landing profiles I've read from a real world CRJ pilot. That definitely helped with realism. Just wondering if there was an actual checklist out there. And honestly, your videos help a lot in pulling the whole picture together Keith. A valuable resource for sure.

Bear in mind that checklist is not supposed to be a todo list. It should be run after configuration for given stage of flight is done to confirm that crucial elements were not skipped. At least that is what guys from AOA claim in their 737NGX training. 737 PMDG checklists (supposedly Boeing's originals) are rather concise- e.g. takeoff checklist has two items (flaps set and not in transition, trim set), landing four (gear down, spoilers armed, engine starters in continuous ignition, flaps extended)

Yep, there are flows, then there's the checklist. Glad you like the videos, Marcos. You'll be happy because I just posted 3 new ones today :) See the Pilot Training Program sub-forum.

Yep already watched two of them Keith! I commented on the PORTE5 one about your scenery...where did you get them? Best one I've seen for KSFO yet. KSNA's was great too.

I'll start getting the flows done prior to checklist. That should help out the realism I'm looking for. The checklist and profiles I use now run the plane perfectly so no problems in that department.

Glad you liked them. I remember your comment now. I used xpscenery.net and the .org to find these, they're all freeware. I figured that if I'm going to do more videos, I should make an effort with the scenery.

xpscenery.net is pretty handy. I've never come across that site before. I'll have to compare the sceneries to the ones in your videos and see which matches :) Thanks for the scenery info. I look forward to more videos!

Keith, I can't seem to match any KSFO scenery to yours from xpscenery.net or the .org. Do you mind posting the link to your scenery here?

The ones I tried aren't as well done. Sorry to be tedious...I'm a perfectionist :)
