In the case of Airspeed Unreliable, three of the four "memory" steps are actually performed by the PF, in this case the Captain. The FO would turn off the F/D switches. Afterwards, the PM would pull out the checklist and confirm, in coordination with the PF, that all the checklist items were accomplished.
So when the FO can't remember (or find) the "memory procedures," what's preventing the Captain from reciting the steps from.... ahem .....
memory and then executing them?
Excerpt from the QRH:
When a non–normal situation occurs, at the direction of the pilot flying, both crew members do all memory items in their areas of responsibility without delay. The pilot flying calls for the checklist when:
- the airplane is not in a critical phase of flight (such as takeoff or landing)
- all memory items are complete.
The pilot monitoring reads aloud:
- the checklist title
- the airplane effectivity (if applicable) as needed to verify the correct checklist
- as much of the condition statement as needed to verify that the correct checklist has been selected
- as much of the objective statement (if applicable) as needed to understand the expected result of doing the checklist.
The pilot flying does not need to repeat this information but must acknowledge that the information was heard and understood.
For checklists with memory items, the pilot monitoring first verifies that each memory item has been done. The checklist is normally read aloud during this verification. The pilot flying does not need to respond except for items that are not in agreement with the checklist. The item numbers do not need to be read....
