| Today's flight, figured to video how I preflight my plane.
| Comments here or on the video most welcomed. Always nice to hear
| input to make me a safer pilot!

| Very Good. i didn;t watch all of it, but it's thorough and you use
| the checklist.
|
| Two thins I'd add to it if they're not already in there.
|
| One, as you walk around, stand back every so often and look at the
| airframe. You're looking for wrinkles in the skin or anything else
| that might look strange.
| Second, you should grab the wingtip and give the airplane a good
| shaking ( after the tiedowns are removed)
| this does two things. Reveals some kinds of damage, like elongated
| wing mounting holes and such, and perhaps more importantly, it will
| get any
fuel
| that might be hiding in the fuel tank away from the sump out of it's
| depression and into the sump.

You better start sucking up and acting like a contributor, you dumb
ass.

Oh yes sir. mr fjukkktard.

Should have watched more of the movie though, it would have been more
convincing. Pretty clear you didn't see much it.

Pretty clear you have your head so firmly up your own butt you're
licking your tonsils from the back.
