The guy , Ryan I think he's called ,who posts regularly as Missionary BushPilot ,com on bush flying on youtube and flies a Turbine Kodiak in PNG has a natty little checklist 'box' on his coaming with labelled switches representing whether am item is checked off by f-l-i-c-k-i-n-g (bloody auto-donk)the switch.
A glance along the row of switches shows if anything is missed and I guess the physical act of 'switching' reinforces the act of checking slightly more than merely glancing at a checklist.
It's unconnected to the a/c systems and being on the coaming keeps 'eyes out' when threading through mountains covered in jungle.
Snip at 99bucks from his website (a bit more for an illuminated one).
