Now Shawn...are you saying the Army could over complicate a rather simple task?
If you get hung up on checklists...and quit thinking....problems occur. Thinking is the key to safe flight....
I prefer the flow pattern for simple machines....much safer ...all you have to do is move your pinky one item down the list and you will have missed it.
Also..the flow pattern is a visual thing...combined with "finger memory"...and can be verbalized as well.
