How often have you received, eg, an instruction to line up and wait, acknowledged it, then done a bunch of other things and as you get to the hold short line, suddenly think, hang on were we told to line up and wait? I wonder if that sort of thing is more likely at your base when the same voice gives you exactly the same instructions that you have heard 100s of times before so that your brain somehow struggles to distinguish today’s sequence from all the others and starts to fill in gaps.
