QRC vs Memory Items
Hey guys,
I know United tried some time ago in the past going to QRC and dumping the Memory items paradigm. I was wondering if that is still in use? Also, if it is, what and how does your airline go about that.... i.e do you keep a laminated copy in the plane or do you just keep a different type of paper readily accessible in your flight manual etc...?
What do you think of that vs. the memory items method....?
Thx!

Schone,
I don't work for UAL, but did work for ACA/Independence and we moved from memory items to a QRC during my time there...
I liked the QRC so much that it was one of the first things that implemented at my new job after I was hired. (We're part 91, so we can do just about anything we want checklist wise).
We keep two copies of the QRC laminated and in the cockpit.

I believe that research has shown that less mistakes are made when using a QRC versus straight memory items. I like it.
