      My Second Buddy Check

      This is my second Buddy Check from

      missionarybushpilot.com. I upgraded to the custom faceplate for my Cutlass 172RG. The battery operated backlighting is a nice feature. Shipping was prompt and quality is as advertised. Coupled with what I’ve learned from Cap’n Ryan’s videos, the Buddy Checklist has made me a safer pilot. I feel part of the mission.

      Excellent Product & Great Service

      This is an excellent product and extremely modular with the use of the custom face plate. My run-up, approach, & shutdown checks have never been so smooth.

      The Buddy Check box is that silent partner in the cockpit keeping you safe!!!

      I am a private pilot who doesn?t fly very often. I frequently fly solo?. The Buddy Check box has truly added efficiency & safety to my flying in the critical phases of flight! The Buddy Check box follows a natural flow & sequence. Having those simple checklist switches literally in your face have proven to be the memory prompt I need to keep me focused, thorough & accurate, but in a manner very much faster than looking away to retrieve your paper checklist, find your place, perform the action, stow the paper, then refocus ?outside?. I wish I would?ve discovered the Buddy Check box years ago!!!!! Thank you Missionary Bush Pilot!!!

      Great Memory Aid

      I consistently utilize my Columbia 350 checklist from preflight to takeoff but at times key items can be overlooked. The Buddy Box is my backup checklist that I utilize just prior to taking off and landing. Customizing the Buddy Box for my plane was key and it has been especially helpful to ensure all has been done prior to landing at my home field which is un-towered with six or more students in the pattern at any given time.

      Great Reminder

      I am reactivating my IFR rating after 20 years. The cockpit gets very busy shooting an approach. Have used my Buddy Box for a few weeks now and it really helps. Sitting on top of my panel it tells me, �don�t forget these steps�. And no fumbling or searching for those darn paper checklists.
