Narrative:

I worked an ETOPS flight. The B757-200 ETOPS job card doesn't specify to turn on the hydraulic pump during the walk around inspection. Since both the B767 and B777 ETOPS inspections require the hydraulic pumps to be on during the walk around phase; I believe it's an oversight that it is omitted from the B757 ETOPS. Add language in the paragraph for the B757 ETOPS to include hydraulic power.
