Gear up landings can happen to ANYONE...

Are you married?
This is a syndrome common to the married male pilot. It usually begins on
the way home from a trip to the store where the wife of the pilot has giving
him a list of items to bring home.
The symtoms involve the car having to be waiting for a light to change half
way home ; fingers gently tapping on the top of the steering wheel; and
thoughts of a wife looking at the pilot in disbelief as she tells him.
"I can't BELIEVE you went to the store and forgot the ONE item I REALLY
needed!"
If this has happened to you, don't worry. You're normal like the rest of us
:-)

the need for the gear cross check on final.

Is anyone aware of any techniques for stopping the gear cross check after
the plane is put away in the hangar and you're driving home? I still find
myself thinking, "Oh my god, did I put the gear down for that landing?"
when I'm a few miles away from the airport in my car...
