I am certainly new to diving and am studying the OW eLearning Course from PADI. I am finding it all very interesting and a real learning experience. Where I live there is more to enjoy underwater than most places in the world.
One thing I find interesting reading posts here and information gleaned from other web sites is I have not seen the mention of a written "Check List". It is far to easy to become lax and/or rushed and miss something that might be the one thing that sets a chain of events into motion that leads to injury or death. I was a military pilot and used check lists for Pre Flight, Take Off, Landing and Post Flight and I assure you that though many of my peers would often want to rely on memory to go through the check list I always insisted in going by the book. It was more than just a walk around, kick the tires and light the fires. There is no such thing as an "Old Bold Pilot" was drilled into me by a very competent Instructor in the beginning of my career. It usually is not just one thing that results in an aviation incident or accident.
There are threads here talking about the subject and searching Google found that PADI provided a written Checklist for Rebreathers for Technical Divers and find information on BWARF. I have not found a written checklist that could be used by a diver prior to every dive.
Am I missing something?
