A flow check would be better, say from left to right.
In our plane that would be:
Harnesses / brakes / brief
Check fuel selector (I leave it alone in the circuit, it should be ok becasue of FREDA)
Fuel pump on
Landing Lights On
DG>Compass / Alt
Airspeed check in flap operating range
Mags check BOTH
Temps and pressures, Volts (not much you can do of course if something is amiss except land!)
Carb heat
Throttle
Mixture
Gear (always down
)
Approach Flaps
