Normal Procedures
Preflight Inspection
• WARNING •
Before carrying out preflight inspections, ensure that all required main-
tenance has been accomplished. Review your flight plan and compute
weight and balance and performance requirements. Throughout the
walk-around: check all hinges, hinge pins, and bolts for security; check
skin for damage, condition, and evidence of delamination; check all con-
trol surfaces for proper movement and excessive free play; check area
around liquid reservoirs and lines for evidence of leaking.
In cold weather, remove all frost (polished or not), ice, snow, or slush
from fuselage, wing, stabilizers, and control surfaces. Ensure that con-
trol surfaces are free of internal ice or debris. Check that wheel fairings
are free of snow and ice accumulation. Check that Pitot probe warms
within 30 seconds of setting Pitot Heat to ON.
Failure to comply may result in significant aircraft damage, loss
of aircraft, and/or loss of life.
