E120 CREW DID NOT COMPLETE THE PUSHBACK; AND ENG START CHKLISTS IN A SEQUENTIAL MANNER.

Narrative

I AM A CHK AIRMAN FOR OUR COMPANY IN THE EMB120. I WAS DOING AN IOE OBSERVATION WITH THE FAA INSPECTOR ON THE JUMP SEAT. I WAS IN THE R SEAT AND THE NEW CAPT WAS IN THE L SEAT. OUR COMPANY HAS A PUSHBACK PROC AND ONE ITEM ON THIS PROC IS TO HAVE THE NOSE GEAR PINNED WHILE PUSHING BACK; WITH TOW BAR AND TUG. THE PROC AND CHKLISTS ARE ORGANIZED AS TO: START BOTH ENGS AT THE GATE; THEN PUSH THE ACFT BACK AND UNHOOK THE TOW BAR AND REMOVE THE GEAR PIN. THE GND PERSONNEL DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE A GEAR PIN SO THE NEW CAPT ELECTED TO START THE R ENG AT THE GATE; THEN PUSH BACK. THE ACFT HAS A SET OF GEAR PINS IN THE COCKPIT; SO THE PIN USED WAS FROM THE ACFT. AFTER PUSHBACK; THE PIN WOULD BE HANDED BACK TO THE COCKPIT THROUGH THE L WINDOW. THEN THE L ENG WAS STARTED. WE FINISHED BOTH THE CHKLISTS FOR ENG START AND PUSHBACK; THEN CONTINUED ON WITH THE TAXI CHKLIST. NORMAL OPS FROM THIS POINT ON FOR AN UNEVENTFUL FLT. MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT WE STARTED AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF BOTH THE START ENG AND PUSHBACK CHKLISTS. THE FAA FROWNS ON THIS I KNOW.
