These checklists have been written for brown cockpit commonality. The unfortunate thing is there is no EICAM on the NG and I feel they are pushing their luck somewhat thinning down the procedures so much. So little money was put into the classic to NG upgrade that stupid systems such as the pressurisation were overlooked and that has since cost lives! Another very weak system is the instrument comparator system that was designed for triple IRS systems such as the 777. Very subtle instrument failure flags on both sides of the cockpit which means you are the voting ADIRU. Helios lawyers should have a field day with this one as it was sooooooo predictable.

Common Seattle work with the airplane you designed, not the one you should have designed!
