PRE-FLIGHT INSPECTION
The pre-flight or visual exterior inspection is done before each and every flight. Spectators
as well as other pilots like to look, feel, touch your aircraft, usually when you are not
around! During the pre-flight inspection you need to make sure that nothing is missing or
out of place and that no-one has tampered with the aircraft.
To conduct the inspection in a manner that ensures that nothing is left out, get into a habit
of following a fixed routine. First break down the components or sections of the pre-flight
into small logical units and do a hands – on “touch and feel” check.
Checking out your aircraft is as important as checking out the weather. PLEASE
don’t ever become complacent about pre-flights.
