Flying it realistically
Choose an add-on that models the overhead panel and systems rather than a simplified default aircraft.
Use the flows and checklists in the correct order: scan flows first, then read the checklist to verify.
Practise a cold-and-dark start with the APU, then a ground-power start, so you learn both paths.
Make sure your add-on's variant (NG or MAX, for example) matches the checklist you use. Systems differ.
Sim use only. These cards are simplified summaries and must never replace real aircraft checklists. Add-on aircraft often differ from the real aircraft and from each other.
EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY. Content is summarised from manufacturer documentation for learning. It is not approved flight or maintenance data. Always use the current, aircraft-specific POH/AFM, FCOM, QRH, AMM and operator procedures.
