Safety notes

  • An AAIB report on a 1978 P210N: the pilot, distracted before flight, left the towbar attached and it fell onto the runway on takeoff.
  • In that report the pilot's pre-flight checklist had no towbar item. Add one, and use a visual cockpit reminder.
  • Before flight, assess fitness to fly. The AAIB cited stress from an earlier incident as a likely factor in the missed towbar.
