GUMPS. I hope I never forget it.


GUMP does not stand for Gas, Undercarriage, Mixture, Prop.


It actually stands for:


G - Gear Down
U - Undercarriage down
M - Make sure the wheels are down
P - Put the wheels down


You forgot the "S" (it's GUMPS, not GUMP):

S - Are you SURE the wheels are down?
