The "Book of Common Wisdom" held that you were not really doing a checklist from memory if at least one finger was touching said checklist during the recital. It also held that a "dual response" could be given by one pilot, provided that the second response was in a falsetto voice. :D

No WE don't, that managements task, not ours!

Quit doing their job!

If they give us a tool that doesn't work, then stop working.

The sooner they do their job, then we can do ours.

I've been guilty and caught using said checklist upside down in the SIM, honest mistake:D

I don't think "we" was referring to the pilots. We all know that job is for management/IT. I interpret that "we" as Skywest.
The problem is bigger than just getting better service coverage though, the surface all together is unreliable..moving all our checklists to it and pulling out the paper copies is an accident waiting to happen. I have not talked to or heard of anyone who doesn't have problems with their surface freezing up and crashing.

ASAP Elec Checklist Campaign
 

Just curious if there is a concerted effort to submit ASAPs about the lack of paper checklist or are we just accepting it as the way it is going to be from here on? I can get behind filling out ASAP's, if there is an end game in sight...

Thanks

I filed an ASAP.......

Heard they are looking into it.. saftey department... maybe will hear something next week..

Skywest v2.0
 

The surface checklist was a nightmare on the approach to SUN.

Horrible.

The before landing checklist is the worst....

ASAP on electronic checklist
 

I have my own normal procedures checklist printed and laminated. Which I will have to insure is up to date. The company stated one of the reasons was the difficulty of printing and distributing updated checklists to all the planes in an orderly way. How about you don't do it very often, seriously, updating checklist too often has it's own safety issues.

I know I will misplace, leave my personal checklist in another aircraft, at some point. Therefore, it won't be long before I will be forced to use the electronic version and have a good enough safety incident to file an ASAP. So, please, by whatever means necessary provide feedback to chief pilots, administration, FAA personnel, or file ASAP reports. It's fine to have a backup electronic checklist on the EFB, but it is beyond ridiculous to not have a paper copy that stays in each plane. I don't think management realizes how much legal jeopardy they are putting themselves in. Are we not required to have a taxi diagram open while taxiing? How is this reasonably possible if we have to switch over to a different page for a checklist? Obviously, we pilots will get nailed initially for any incident, but I can't see how this would not circle back on the company at some point. It can't be worth the ($5,000?) that is saved every year on not printing checklists. Talk about penny wise and pound foolish.
