far too easy for example to to turn off hydraulics rather than engine anti ice I seem to remember
Had an F/O do this to me once after climbing out of fog after take-off. It certainly got my attention!

I have to agree with all of what A37575 has to say, particularly not checking the cabin is pressurizing during the climb before reaching 10,000', stowing the reversers fully at 60 kts & getting a burst of forward thrust & waiting for the "rotate" call instead of rotating on your own ASI & using the call as a back up as per the FCTM.

As for landing, cosmo kramer is correct. Start reducing power to idle at 20 -30 feet & then flare the thing, instead of flying it on with a nose low attitude. Works nicely with flap 40 as well!
