CheckMate Cessna 210 N Pressurized Checklist: Keep Pressurization in the Flow

Pressurization is the reason pilots choose the P210N, and also the reason its cockpit asks more of them. On top of the gear, the propeller and a turbocharged engine, there’s a pressurization system to set up before takeoff, monitor in the climb and manage in the descent.

More systems mean more ways to miss a step, so a checklist written for the Pressurized 210 N, rather than the unpressurized model, is the right starting point. Read it against the airplane’s POH/AFM, including any supplements, and confirm it fits your airplane’s year and equipment. The handbook is the authority; the checklist is the working copy.

Quick answer: The CheckMate Cessna 210 N Pressurized Checklist is a cockpit checklist for pilots who fly the Pressurized Cessna 210 N Centurion. It comes as CheckMate, CheckMate+ or CheckMate Pro in Standard (6.5″ x 9″) or Compact (5″ x 7″) sizes. It’s meant to supplement the airplane’s POH/AFM, not replace it, so confirm it matches your exact model, year, engine and handbook before relying on it. It’s listed on Skyfarer and available at Skyfarer Shop.

Getting the most from it

  1. Start with a match check. Confirm the checklist fits your exact model, year and engine by comparing it with the airplane’s POH/AFM.
  2. Compare it with the POH/AFM before the first flight. Supplements for avionics, autopilots and other modifications can change procedures, so read those too. The handbook always governs.
  3. Rehearse the pressurization items. Before flying the airplane at altitude, go through the pressurization-related items on the checklist against the POH/AFM’s normal and emergency procedures so you know where each one sits in the flow.
  4. Keep it where your hand finds it. Decide where the checklist lives in flight and keep it there every time. Standard (6.5″ x 9″) and Compact (5″ x 7″) sizes give you a choice.

Checklist and handbook

Any checklist, including this one, works alongside the airplane’s POH/AFM rather than in place of it. The handbook and its supplements have the final word on procedures, speeds and limitations.

Before you rely on it, confirm it matches your airplane’s exact model, year and engine, and check it against the handbook that belongs to that airplane, including any supplements for modifications or avionics.

Pilot tip: Know your oxygen plan for a loss of pressurization before you need it. Time is short at altitude, and the plan should already be decided.
