My FMS software check habit just paid off big time

I started verifying every update on our flight management systems. It felt like busywork, but last week it prevented a potential nav system fault. What daily habits have you kept that help a lot?

That "busywork" feeling is exactly why those checks are so easy to skip. You sticking with it shows how a simple, consistent habit can layer up over time. It's like finding a slow drift in a code library because you always glance at the version notes, even when nothing seems wrong. Catching those small shifts early is what keeps a system from going sideways later.

Yeah @schmidt.eva, setting a daily alarm finally made those checks stick for me.

Wait, you check EVERY update? That's wild. Good on @markmurray for making it a habit too.
