Startup, taxi, take-off, and landing checklists based off of Chuck's guide for the M-2000C.

Startup Kneeboards for the P-47 and a few other helpful pages.  All from the original flight manual.

-Changed to document on 15 January per community suggestion.

Simple chart for normal and hot/high takeoffs.
Version 1.2: Adds recommendation for +10 knots when carrying external wing tanks.

Yellow box means long takeoff distance and red box means dangerously long takeoff distance and possibly difficulty sustaining flight after takeoff. Takeoff distances were measured at 20 deg C and 45 deg C in latest DCS Open Beta as of 2020-11-30.

The kneeboard is dark to not be blinding during night-ops. Put in you Saved Games Kneeboard folder.

Version 1.2

I tried to create aesthetic paper-kneeboard for you favourite planes, so you will always feel like in real aircraft! Don't forget to use NIGHT friendly version!
I also tried to make the procedure as much time-optimized as possible.

Update 05.05.21: V2.1
- Kneeboards underwent renaming to co-exist together. Using all of my kneeboards in conjunction won't blind you suddenly when scrolling through night pages. There's a day and night groups now.
- Removed BLEED AIR from start up
- Added INS FAST
- Updated ECM: REC / XMT

You're a genius! During these Gig Economy days, you've come up with the best idea ever! You'll going to be a supersonic delivery dude/dudette!

To Practice:
- Unconventional takeoffs and landings
