Pre-takeoff checklist
I know some people who get atis and copy ifr clearance before starting the engine (sitting in cockpit with master + avionics on). I've been conditioned to believe that this is very bad and could quickly drain the battery (and thus always do these things with engine idling).
As a renter, I'd prefer to do these things without running the engine.
Thoughts?
