USA! I love it. U (because I've seen several gear-ups).

S (because it reminds one to turn early or late on
downwind, and compensate for headwind/look at the sock),
also, many landing accidents are undershoots.

A (less important, but worthy of a check to ensure you
don't have a flap handle (L-13), and that they actually
unlock)

Everything else should
have been done before or is plain bleeding obvious.


Yep, the rest could be further down the list...

I had one instructor who
used the F for "Fag (extinguish and chuck out of DV panel)"...


LOL! I had to read this one twice...
