Maybe I'm already planning around some weather. Maybe I'm practicing my airways navigation. Maybe I've already called FOE and made sure that lunch will be served.

I'll say that I don't think that checklists in the military are built for speed. I've watch some of the bizjets in the local airports start taxiing in an amazingly short period of time. I saw one that seem to be around 4 minutes from the time they closed the door until they were outbound. I was amazed. I don't even have both engines on line in that amount of time.
