Narrative:

I was scheduled as so on flight #XXX on 1/92, from slc to sfo. FAA representative arrived before the flight to observe the new captain's initial operating experience (IOE). He noticed before the flight that I did not have incorporated in my pilot's operating manual (pom) 3 of the 6 recently received changes. The changes also were not in my flight kit, so I went downstairs to operations, obtained the missing changes, returned them to my flight kit, and continued the flight. (Changes involved). While incorporating the changes to my pom at home before the rotation began, I became distraction, thought I had finished the job, put everything back into my flight kit except the 3 missing changes, and departed soon thereafter on my rotation. The cause of this incident was my failure to maintain concentration in completing the change incorporation, and my carelessness in not realizing I departed my residence without the changes. Contributing to the incident was the unusual number of pages involved, most of which required transferring of my notes, underlinings, and highlighting. This required an unusual amount of time, and contributed to the incident.
