News item tonight:

The plane was an amphibian, and the pilot failed to retract the wheels before landing on water. This guy was lucky.
Before any call him stupid, think how many times we all do routine things without a checklist? Here are a few things that everyone should have a short checklist, before doing:
Hooking up any trailer.
Launching any boat.
Retrieving any boat.
Pulling out any RV trailer.
Setting up any RV.
Hooking up, or un-hooking, any 5th wheel!!
Etc.....
I made up my checklists after I pulled out a 5'er with a storage door unlocked. Before, I had always done a walk-around without a list, not good enough..
I once saw a new truck towing a new 5'er, pullout without the landing gear down. A heavily dented truck bed!
A short list, plastic coated, is cheap insurance for a brain-fart.
