Sometimes it's the little things that finally catch up to you. I have a routine for strapping into the aircraft that includes sliding the "keepers" down on my shoulder harness. I missed that item today and it bit me. Last 30 seconds of video,,,,,

Bob, I've done that and also found floating objects (flashlight, pens), unlatched secondary lap belt, and primary lap belt loose, etc. As soon as I reach pattern altitude, I now do a quick right, left 45 degree banks, about 20 degree pitch up, push to zero Gs, and continue push to 1 negative G, and see what's not secure. Better to check before show time.

Good suggestion Bill. I'm going to start doing that.
