Mnemonic Phrases

We all know that aviation has it's fair share of mnemonica phrases, just wondered whats your favourite, mine is one I learned on my first lesson and still use today:

The final checks at the hold:

(Tommy Tickled Mary's Pussy For Fun, Golly Gosh He Had Fun)


TOMMY = TRIMMER

TICKLED = TROTTLE (Friction)

MARY'S = MIXTURE

PUSSY = PROP

FOR FUN = FULL AND FREE

GOLLY = GAUGES

GOSH = GYRO'S

HE = HATCHES

HAD = HARNESSES

FUN = FUEL (pump on, correct tank etc)



Never forgotton this one and I feel it's pretty good for those last checks, now lets hear some of the others
