Brief the minimum necessary, OKC day vfr isn't BOG at night in WX.

Call out erroneous, abnormal and inappropriate stuff.

**** about Normal expected everyday stuff.

(Applicable to the 1,000' and 500' calls, those 100/80/60 callouts on landing roll, {- it's an -80 thing...} reiteration of Approach speeds and landing flaps and autobrake settings that have already been discussed and set, everything past V1/Vr on the TakeOff, who's flying - three times, and normal procedures of all sorts.

Mechanical/Electronic Checklists used to Check that critical items are done are good, quick, simple, easy and visible to both pilots.

Miles long paper "To-Do" Lists, Mandatory Briefings of The Painfully Obvious, and the usually associated Verbal Diarrhea suck Big Time - and are counterproductive.

AA is actually pretty good at the above, on the antique fleet, if one goes by their damned book and not by what some SimP said "they like to see" or "most guys do".
