However the main point QDM is to know the differences between types and sub types and always to remember which one you are in at the time!
Well, obviously.

This has caused at least one aircraft I know to be force landed (safely) as during considerable stress the pilot regressed to prior PA28 experience and performed all the emergency checks impeccably save the master start switch, which isolates the starter motor.
The last time you should be using a written checklist in a light single is when the engine quits.

I'd rather rely on a thorough knowledge of the procedures for each type I fly than on Bacon Saver AOA devices
Cheap shot. Without wishing to sound like a pompous git, although I are one, there is no possible connection between the two. It's like saying 'I'd rather rely on my wings to keep me up than talk to ATC'.
