Who stated before that this thing is "100% correct"??? Mr. Goulet, I hope you were joking. So much for using an actual CRJ-700 checklist, especially since he shows it from the manufacturer. The terminology he uses itself is DEAD WRONG.
"Turn on the AVIONICS MASTER SWITCH"??? I haven't seen one of those in years and I've been flying the dang thing for at least 6.
"Press the FUEL FLOW button to open the valves"??? Alright, how about just pressing in the L and R BOOST PUMP switches?
"Click the MASTER IGNITION"??? Please show me that switch, especially since the CONT IGN switch light is illuminated after he does it. You don't have to turn on the CONT IGN prior to start since it's all automatic. You also don't need to disengage the starter after start, since it's automatically done it by itself.
The GEN switches shouldn't be touched, since they're also automatic.
The APU GEN doesn't have to be switched off prior to APU shutoff since it's also automatic.
Yep, it's "100% correct" alright.
I understand that different companies have different approved techniques. If the terminology of the switches isn't even correct, then obviously not much else is.
