Lightbulb Tell us one thing you always do, and from which others might learn

A nearby thread speaks of an accident probably caused by a loose harness buckle snagging the cyclic. Where I was taught to fly it was a SOP that all belts should be buckled, whether or not someone was in the seat, and that all headsets not in use should be stowed. The reason, I was told, was the risk of loose objects snagging pedals, collective or, err...the cyclic. The chief pilot was ex-mil, and may well have had Gazelle experience for all I know.

The point is, I've always followed that piece of advice, believing it to be obviously worthwhile.

So, what do you always do that others should always do?
