Points well made and taken...
RE: "I will never land gear up because I have developed a fool proof check
list backed up by a fool proof flow pattern from which I never deviate."
As a CFII friend of mine used to say: "There are only two types of pilots
flying retractable gear airplanes: those who have made a gear-up landing,
and those who will".
You are correct, humans do make mistakes. And while I am reasonably tolerant
of the mistakes of others, I have no tolerance for the mistakes I myself
make, and tend to beat myself to death looking for ways to avoid them.
But back to my original "checklist" statement. If a pilot consistently
forgets the item "Turn Off Master" on a checklist, one can only wonder what
other items on what other checklists he/she is consistently missing.
And if they don't consistently miss turning off the master, is it enough of
a problem to make it worthwhile to employ Rube Goldberg-ian measures to
remind them to do so? Might not a dead battery on a severe-clear day serve
as a good, yet harmless, object lesson?
And bet or no, I hope to enjoy a milkshake with you somewhere along the
way...
