While investigating both issues in the pattern at my home airport, I at one point received an audio 'low fuel' warning. While I was confident I had fuel in both tanks and both were in balance, I could have had a fuel leak or something else, so I landed and had them both topped off which amounted to...

Diamond did not enable it in the default G1000 configuration so it cannot be enabled from the AUX pages. You have to modify the G1000 configuration. The general instructions are in this thread.

What I've read from AOPA says the opposite. It says there is no statistical difference in accident rates for older pilots.

I'll see if I can find the specific article(s).

I have a similar template for every day of flying. I fill most of it out before each flight which then also puts me through a review of the airports, W&B, speeds, etc. I pre-fill my expected clearance, though of course that isn't always the clearance I receive. It collects everything I need for ...
