I agree with all that.....but...
I just have never quite agreed that the 737NG EVAC Non-Normal should have been changed to a read-and-do, as a memory checklist it was more practical!

My feelings too, but it's an airline issue - when Boeing changed it to read and do, most companies followed suit. RYR have a better system of having it a memory checklist that you subsequently redo as "read and do" if circumstances permit. The only problem with that is if someone really stuffs up the sequence and orders the evac over the PA before shutting down the engines, but that's unlikely and I'm sure if it had been done in the sim, the proceedue would become purely read and do again.
