(I let the right seat go first. If it sounds good, we go with it.)

3. You do it.

Both crew members work as a team. Not the captain barking out orders.

With such a short time between Quack, Bang and Skip - I’m betting the CVR will show CRM in action to the maximum level.
WVO -- Read the second page of the pilot's resume on the smoking gun (linked by waybomb above and here http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2009/0115093hero3.html).

You hit the nail on the head re CRM. Looks like this guy not only knew CRM, he was "the driving force" in developing it for his airline and he taught it to hundreds of pilots.

BTW, I always enjoy reading your insights and behind the scenes accounts of the aviation industry.
