. Let's see, some others....F/O's setting the stab trim, not arming Speedbrake for ldg, the seatbelt sign, Status page called up and left "up" after waveoff, comm 1 and 2 usage on ramp and ground control, the logbook (a biggie!) and course the whole FMS/MCDU thing, among many others!!!
Oh my god! An FO set the stab trim? Did the jet explode?
I prefer Fletch, vs. feltch, myself...and I always keep some 3-n-1 oil in my flight kit.
I actually prefer the south way of running the FMS, but I'm flexible. For all of the above, I really don't care who does it, as long as it gets done right.
