Busted TFR, what to expect?
Check nav lights and rotating beacon
You check them on EVERY flight? I only check those before a night flight. (And my rotating beacon was removed years ago, in lieu of strobes.) Check electric fuel pump That's before take-off, on my checklist. Check flap operation Yep, those are down and inspected during the pre-flight. Sample fuel from each tank and from the gascalator Yep, that's part of it, too. (Guess I figured that was a "given"...) Touch everything inspected (not just look at it but touch it - how can you tell a nut is loose just by looking?). Roger that. Alternator belt is checked for freeplay I can't get at mine, sadly. Inspect tires and brakes (including exposed lines) Mine are under the "fancy pants" -- so all I can see is the bottom of the tires. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
