Routines and manual checklist. It's the only way to prep your dive kit (or aircraft) before use.

Can you not manually inflate a wing BCD?

Yes, he was probably over weighted, lost his buddy and then panicked. Very sad, should have never died even with lack of proper hose hookup. According to wikipedia, the ship he was found near is at about 120 feet, so he or his buddy could have easily attached hose or oral inflated at that depth.
I just finished reading Diver Down, should be required reading for certification. So many easily preventable incidents.
