The next step apparently was the entire list. I'd rather have 2 eyes make sure everything is off.
For 73n: Is pride really so much an issue that we can't dual verify everything is off? Who cares? I'd rather take the safest route.
No, it's not a question of pride - it's a question of best use of time. There are a lot of items the FO does airborne without verification (Climb checklist, Descent Checklist). Maybe there are some critical items (engine) that shoudl be dual verification BUT the entire checklist!!!!
