The aircraft after takeoff remained in the ground mode. The crew returned and landed. The reporter feels there should be an abnormal checklist to accommodate that event.

Narrative:
After takeoff had a ground/flight switch fault with multiple alerts of malfunctions due to aircraft being in a ground mode while airborne. Had a downwind vector to a VFR landing without incident. A problem lies in trying to process through our company handbook with multiple faults/alerts. A known fault which gives known multiple faults should have all or most procedures located in 1 area versus throughout the book.
