Given that I'm an old fart, and given that the crew access door has nothing to do with the airworthiness of the a/c, but I might check it at crew change over as it takes <20secs, and given that the fire test is slightly more critical and takes 30secs, and given the O2 test is also quite a little critical, and a heap load of other items; sometimes it's time to obey the SOP's to their minimum, and then add a few extras for yourself. Remember the SOP's for different operators are SO... Different ... and are not cast in stone as God's gift. You are at the sharp end, not the SOP guru.
