I think the 13 different CL memory items is not just in reference to QRH/ECL NNC but includes the manoeuvres too. TCAS, EGPWS, Windshear etc. of course I may be mistaken. Although having just counted we have 9 check lists that require memory items (if you count severe damage and fire as 2 separate check lists). On top of that there are 6 maneuvers to remember.

Emergency evacuation is on the back of the QRH, and has been mentioned before is generally a read and do. For our outfit item 5. is Advise the cabin to evacuate (Captain) and item 6. is Advise the tower (F/O)

With regards to hand luggage; I don't think you will ever stop everyone from taking their luggage off with them. I would be interested to see evacuation trials completed where 15-20% of passengers are instructed to take hand luggage to see what effect that has on the evacuation time.

Regards
