So much for cross checking and verify on the really important stuff. Another DENTK *&(%(*^
Yeah, what's in the FMC and MCP is totally not important. Let's focus more on checking the altimeter setting at least two or three more times from the T/D to landing. Why check things like the correct departure, the cleared altitude, heading, LNAV, VNAV... just say "set" and it's clearly all good.
On the landing gear and flaps, everyone is still confirming it. Yep, DENTK is the problem. Been through the 737 course lately?
