Hey, I can't help wondering what your landing checklist is in the Gazelle.
You've got no flaps... no mixture control... "OK.. checklist, seatbelts
-yep, carb heat - yep.. ok, we're done." :-)

I ask because I've had 6 different instructors and none of them have
insisted on a formal landing checklist.

Hi Dallas. The Gazelle has checklists, albeit very short ones! ;-)
The pre-landing checklist is simply this:

Fuel pump on.
Fuel on and sufficient for go around.
Brake pressure firm.
Hatches and Harnesses secure.

That's it! Simple, but easy to forget if you're busy doing other things.
