Geoff,
The OEMs are so bad at writing sensible and use-able checklists that I would be amased if any professional operator follows RFM procedures verbatim.
The only part of the RFM that HAS to be followed is the Limitations section. I am sure the OEMs don't want to be inundated by "no objection" requests for every NCL in use!
