Personally I am very paranoid of this so I try my best to look out that window on the ground and at the plates for the crossing restrictions in the air. I have caught the Capt. from making errors and they have caught me. (Learned from them and move on) I usually always add this after the capts brief to just pick up our awareness. Scare the Capt alittle bit on the brief and he/she will use them spidey sences with me.
During flight there is sometimes almost a trading of experience going on. He/She would share their methods with me and I would share other ways to use the FMS,MFD that they never knew of.
