Teddyballgame,
And you'd be wrong.
Yankees are:
Americans outside the U.S.
Northerners inside the U.S.
New Englanders north of "the line".
Vermonters inside New England (real ones--they shovel ******, not pack it)
In Vermont, Yankees live in the Northeast Kingdom

That's the problem, isn't it? I'd bet most F/Os merely look in the correct directions during walkarounds without even seeing what they're supposed to be looking for.
SWA might have the correct system. The F/O does the walk the first flight of the day, the ground crews do the rest. I'd guess their ground crews catch more problems than the average F/O who is just going through the motions.

Funny how stations like to imply that minor things should always wait until the aircraft goes to maintenance simply because they do not want to deal with a planeload of delayed passengers.
I'd rather have my first officer, or myself doing this.
