thanks for that - it was essentially the purpose of my post. I don't have the vast experience of others on this forum, but finding myself flying one or two different types (essentially the same, but with slightly different "toys", mostly in the fuel area), I did review what the checks were trying to achieve - i.e. *think* about it, what was different and why!

On the basis of that, I tried to develop my own check system that would encompass the essential elements in an ordered way (i.e. Fuel, Engine, Airframe, Instruments), rather than (what I consider to be disorganised) BUMp... If its organised, then it can logically be adapted to (any?) type.

As I will soon be doing some training on a slightly more advanced type, I was a little surprised to find the old BUMpfff.... rearing its head again, and which I obviously will have to re-learn.
