Hola Chai Ja -

I realise the problem you describe.
Although with airlines and senior pilots, checklists/SOP are generally performed quite well.
Before the days of "all simulator" training, I had to teach in airplanes.
That included playing "touch and goes" with 707, 727 and DC8s...!
(What a waste of fuel that was) -
And... I fly a plane with a crew of three... quite better than just "TWO IDIOTS".

One thing I did (and still use nowadays, airplane or simulator) -
I have
memorized some abbreviated checklist to save my neck.
As you may read here and other places in the forum, many recommend the "3 KILLERS" -
It works for any "straight jet airplane".

There are also abbreviated "training" checklists used by airlines.
I have memorized them - but I admit, I am constantly instructing.
They are designed to keep you alive.
Who cares about "galley power, seat belts signs or transponders" etc...
These will not kill you, you just might get a call by your chief pilot.

I remember teaching friends to fly Super Cub lighplanes with a fixed gear.
Everyone laughed at me when I said "GEAR DOWN - LANDING CHECK" when turning in final.
It is an example of things you should always say and do (not knowing your background).

Happy contrails (and laugh at me) -
