Overview
It is the pilot’s responsibility to make sure that the trailer is fully
functional and ready to use before going cross country. Anything
found on the trailer to be damaged, worn out or not working should
be reported to a committee member, LS7 captain or trailer officer.
Where possible, it is preferred that the pilot fix the fault themselves
if the issue is minor.
