Here's my SkyCatcher checklist PDF file if anyone wants to take a look.

It works very well in iBooks on IPad Mini 4. iBooks indexes one page at a time and saves your place as you switch back and forth between IFly and iBooks.

Works well on IPhone 6S Plus also.

I think something like this would work as a simple add-on for IFly GPS. You would simply add some sort of PDF file reader, put a "Checklist" button in place of "History" and give us the ability to upload our PDF checklist file which each person could create for their airplane. Better yet, have the "checklist" button take us to a directory with multiple checklist files for people who fly multiple airplanes.

...or it could take you to a page that looks like this...

We could upload our flight manuals, etc.

PS: The easiest way I have found to save PDF files to iBooks (from a Windows computer) is to upload them to Dropbox, then download from Dropbox to iBooks. I created that checklist using Microsoft Word, then found a free website to convert from Word to PDF.

Re: Bluetooth Voice Activated Checklist

I second the idea of having a Checklist button at the bottom of the screen. Further, when it pops up whatever it pops up, have a red exclamation point button (like you do for the NRST button) that brings up your emergency checklist. Thanks.
