FINAL CHECK

PF "Stabilized - final check - three greens"
PNF "Checked - flaps?"
PF "30"
PNF "Checked - final check completed"

IMO - It depends on the aircraft you are flying. I flew ATR's for a living and at the end it came down to the above final check. The aircraft had a very forgiving design which is IMHO the way they should be built. If you ommitted the "condition levers -max" they would advance by themselves when adding power more than a predetermined setting.

It is the old contraptions which require more attention to detail but also there if the sh... hits the fan I would opt for the very short versions of vital items such as gear and correct flaps setting to approach the runway configured and at correct speed.

KISS would be my approach. Vitals only.
