Safety notes

  • Ensure magnetos and ignition switch are off with key extracted before engine checks.
  • Check for hydraulic fluid leakage in landing gear and other components.
  • Verify coolant levels before the first flight of the day.
  • Perform visual inspections for cracks, erosion, and cleanliness of windows.
  • Ensure all external lights are off after engine shutdown.
  • Secure loose objects and ensure surrounding airspace is clear before exercises.

Drain the left fuel tank sump by quick drain valve using a cup to collect fuel (drainage operation must be carried out with the aircraft parked on a level surface). Check for water or other contaminants. Make sure filler capo is closed. B Remove pitot plug and check Pitot for obstruction; do not blow inside pitot tube. C Left side leading edge and wing skin: visual inspection; Check stall strip. D Left strobe light: visual inspection; Check for integrity and fixing. E Left aileron, hinges and LH tank vent line: Check for damage, freedom for play, LH tank vent: checks for obstructions. F Left flap and hinges: visual inspection. G Left main landing gear: CHECK inflation, tire condition, alignment, fuselage skin condition. Check fuselage skin status, tire status (cuts, bruises, cracks and excessive wear), slippage markers integrity, gear structure and brakes hoses: there should be no sign of hydraulic fluid leakage. H Stabilator and tab: CHECK stabilator leading edge. Check the actuating mechanism of stabilator and the connection with related tab: CHECK free of play, friction. CHECK fuselage bottom and top skin. CHECK antennas for integrity. I Vertical tail, rudder: visual inspection, check free of play, friction. L Right main landing gear: Check inflation,tire condition, alignment, fuselage skin condition. Check fuselage skin status, tire status (cuts, bruises, cracks and excessive wear), slippage markers integrity, gear structure and brakes hoses: there should be no sign of hydraulic fluid leakage. M Right flap and hinges: visual inspection. N Right aileron, hinges and RH side tank vent: visual inspection, check free of play, Friction; Rh side tank vent : check for obstructions. O Right strobe light, leading edge and wing skin : Visual inspection, CHECK stall strips, CHECK strobe light for integrity and fixing. P Stall Indicator Micro Switch: CHECK for integrity and free of play. Q Right side fuel filler cap: check desired fuel level (use a graduated dipstick). Drain the right fuel tank sump by quick drain valve using a cup to collect fuel. (drainage operation must be carried out with the aircraft parked on a level surface). Check for water or other contaminants. Make sure filler cap is closed. R Nose wheel strut and tire/ RH static port : CHECK inflation, tire condition and condition of shock absorber: there should be no sign of hydraulic fluid leakage. Check the right static port for obstructions. S Propeller and spinner condition: check for nicks, cracks, dents and other defects, propeller should rotate freely. Check fixing and lack of play between blades and hub. T Check the engine cowling surface conditions, then open engine inspection doors and perform the following checks: a) Nacelle inlets and exhausts openings must be free of obstructions. Check connection and integrity of air intake system, visually inspect that ram air intake is unobstructed. If inlet and outlet plugs are installed, they must be removed. b) Check radiators. There should be no indication of leakage of fluid and they have to be free of obstructions. c) Check for foreign objects d) Only before the first flight of a day: (1) Verify coolant level in the expansion tank, replenish as required up to top (level must be at least 2/3 of the expansion tank). (2) Verify coolant level in the overflow bottle: level must be between min. and max. mark. BEFORE PROCEDING WITH THE NEXT STEPS BE SURE MAGNETOES AND IGNITION SWITCH ARE OFF WITH KEY EXTRACTED (3) Turn the propeller by hand to and from, feeling the free rotation of 15°or 30° before the crankshaft starts to rotate. If the propeller can be turned between the dogs with practically no friction at all further investigation is necessary. Turn propeller by hand in direction of engine rotation several times and observe engine for odd noises or excessive resistance and normal compression. (4) Carburettors: check the throttle and choke cables for condition and installation. (5) Exhaust: inspect for damages, leakage and general condition. (6) Check engine mount and silent-blocks for condition. e) Check oil level and replenish as required. Prior to oil check, switch off both ignitions circuits and turn the propeller by hand in direction of engine rotation several times to pump oil from the engine into the oil tank, or let the engine idle for 1 minute. This process is finished when air is returning back to the oil tank and can be noticed by a murmur from the open oil tank. Prior to long flights oil should be added so that the oil level reaches the “max” mark. f) Drain off Gascolator for water and sediment (drain until no water comes off). Then make sure drain valve is closed. g) Check drainage hoses free of obstructions h) Verify all parts are fixed or locked: inspect fuel circuit for leakages. U Close engine cowling, check for proper alignment of cam-locks. V Landing/Taxi light and LH static port : CHECK, Visual inspection for integrity. Right side tank vent: check for obstructions Z Tow bar and chocks: REMOVE stow on board pitot, static ports and stall warning protective covers.
