As for why they didn't notice roc or green lights. Expectancy bias for both. They were light on this flight but heavy in previous flights. The expectancy bias is something Qlink has been honing honing in on in c and t. It's not an isolated case though. Seen lots of read and not actually checking in checklists throughout my time.
