Fully interactive, complete in-game checklists for the Daher TBM 930 if you prefer that format over reading a pdf. This is a major update that fixes everything that was broken by AAU1 and incorporates the few AAU2 changes. You will need to delete any previous version you still have installed before extracting this.
Features:
- Full interactive procedures as taken from the 2020 Daher TBM Pilot's Information Manual, Edition 0 - Revision 5.
- 99% working as a manual checklist or by using the Autocomplete Page (copilot) option.
- Designed with Evaluation mode (Assisted Checklist) in mind.
Basic Checklists:
- Inside Inspection: 33 checkpoints (15 in original)
- Before Starting Engine: 19 checkpoints (6 in original)
- Engine Start: 10 checkpoints (15 in original)
- After Starting Engine: 12 checkpoints (8 in original)
- Before Taxiing: 13 checkpoints (6 in original)
- Before Line Up: 24 checkpoints (16 in original)
- Take Off: 9 checkpoints (6 in original)
- After Take 7 Off: checkpoints (5 in original)
- Climb: 13 checkpoints (7 in original)
- Cruise: 12 checkpoints (6 in original)
- Before Descent: 8 checkpoints (4 in original)
- Approach: 10 checkpoints (5 in original)
- Final Approach: 3 checkpoints (0 in original)
- Short Final: 3 checkpoints (3 in original?)
- Runway Clear: 9 checkpoints (6 in original)
- Shutdown: 19 checkpoints (14 in original)
Deviations from POH:
- Before Starting Engine: Moved ATIS -- Copied step to after selecting a power source, otherwise you don't have a radio
- When starting engine, ITT, Ng, Oil Temp and Oil Pressure are usually 1 checkpoint, I split it into 3 to make it easier to follow
Known Issues - Won't Fix:
- I'm not sure if Amps are working correctly even after the AAU. During startup, battery amps shows 0 and generator 64. Only mentioning because there's a check for Amps G being under 80 that requires an additional test. That may be how it's supposed to work.
- Highlighting of specific gauges (ex. ITT, Fuel Quantity) on the WT G3000 does not work. (I think this is a Working Title thing)
- All steps that require a manual tick in Evaluation mode are just skipped in autocomplete mode, so be careful. This includes any MFD settings, clearance, or altitude selection.
Known Issues - Investigating (future update):
- Missing translation files
- Cabin door and pilot door -- Closed / Locked: In Autocomplete mode, if manually opened before starting, the doors will close and lock, and the value is set correctly, but the animation to lock the handles doesn't play so the handle remains vertical. There's no effect on gameplay and it's unlikely you'll see this.
- GPU start is a work in progress. It's ok doing it yourself, but breaks in autocomplete because of limitations in what can be automated. I'm working on it, but it would really hold up this release. Do not call for ground power, then autocomplete the after engine start checklist.
- That stupid ST-BY Test light. I don't know what it's supposed to do and it should just be checking that it's been pressed, but nothing's working. Both evaluation and autocomplete will get an automatic pass on it.
- Autocomplete will not set full power on the throttle during takeoff. Do it manually.
Gameplay Notes:
- Some checkpoints may have been reworded to make more sense within the game
- External preflight inspection not included as there's no interactivity. Assume your plane is in perfect condition.
- Non-standard and emergency checklists won't be included until Asobo changes the way they categorize checklist steps. It's unintuitive to naturally change between lists if you don't need them.
- It's just a checklist. Though some steps are automated, particularly in auto complete mode, it won't fly the plane for you.
- I'm still figuring out a lot as I go, if you notice any errors not otherwise mentioned, please comment below or message me and I will do my best to fix them.
Daher TBM 930 Specific Notes:
- I could not find how long you're supposed to hold buttons for system tests. 3 seconds is a guess, but it provides enough time for the MFD to turn on.
- There's a Trims test in the Before Taxiing checklist. You should be testing full range, but I feel like that's overkill here
- Optimal rate of climb and climb speed are extremely dumbed down and just use a standard value for all situations.
- If you're using Evaluation mode, all checkpoints that require MFD or radio use are manual ticks, including those within checkpoint blocks. In autocomplete, those checkpoints are automatically skipped.
Installation:
- Unzip to your community folder
Works perfectly, thanks for that.

Unfortunately, it no longer works with the new AAU update
