Mechanical checklist

Herb.
I figured they are not make any more, but I'm handy, I going to try and make one. But I'd like to know what is printed on the upper and lower portions. I'd assume the step by step checklist, ie. something like "GUMPS", but I don't know. As I said before I'm in the CAP and we had a safety meeting last Saturday which the instructor showed a video of two high-time pilots in an "RG" C182, one pilot was taking a check ride the other the CFI. The pilots were "BS" and the guy landed without dropping the gear and all along both pilots were asking "what's that buzzing sound?" With that said my friend and I looked at one another and said "DIDN'T USE THE CHECKLIST" and I said even the acronym "GUMPS" would have help the situation!! This is why I'm interested in the mechanical checklist you have.
MANY THANKS. BILLS
