Thanks, E120, but that was my point: if
the gear is down already and the flaps are set before reading the items
then it's not a real DO list anymore.
This is a simple example, but in other ck lists, extending the flaps according to SOP for example, could be the wrong thing to do.
So we are back at the starting point. If it has to be a DO list, the PNF should read first, then extend the flaps electrically, for example.
But when?
When he thinks appropriate to do so?
Does the PF just fly and become totally passive?
If we really want to stick to that principle...than we have a problem...
I tend to take my time and read ALL the non normal ck list BEFORE doing it, to review it and know what to expect and how to behave.
Then, if I am PNF, I would say "xxx item NEXT", and the PF would decide when to do that.

Opinions?
