Amortes

The Jepp briefing strip is nice but whenever I penetrate a stupid front I always go back to the basic:
AMORTES

A ATIS, ALTIMETER, APPROACH

NOTED, SET, CLEARANCE / DATE / PAGE

M MINIMUMS or (MINIMA if you insist)

SECTOR, HOLDING, IAF, PROC.TURN, FAF, MDA / DH
O OVERSHOOT

AS PUBLISHED OR ATC CLEARANCE

R RADIOS

TUNED, IDENTIFIED, SENSING CORRECTLY

T TIMINGS, TRACK BARS

TIMINGS, TRACK BARS SET AS REQUIRED
E EMERGENCIES

AS PER SOPs / EXISTING ( does no good to shoot a great approach, forget you are OEI and try to hover the darn thing at the bottom. )


S SWITCHES

NAV / GPS / # 1 / # 2 - SET AND CHECKED


And the classic for check / reporting points


5 T's TIME, TURN, THROTTLE (Climb, descend or change speed) TUNE and then TALK
One crusty instructor I know insists that a 6th T - THINK would prevent most accidents!
