  10. What can we do? • Keep checking the tires • Pressure and Tread • When moving an aircraft, use 2 people (or more) • Be aware of the wing span, tail and height • Paint lines to assist with moving aircraft • Use spotter in rear if close to wall or other aircraft • Situational Awareness • When taxing • Stay 5 feet or more away from obstacles. • When in doubt STOP

  11. DOV Tips • Take and landing • Stay current • Not current – fly with an IP • Be aware of nose attitude • Affect of Cross winds • Use Checklist • No matter what we fly, use of check list is mandatory • Don’t be eyes inside • Look out side when the aircraft is moving • Not the time to be programming the GPS

  12. DO tips • Check the front cover of the aircraft book • PIC is responsible to ensure aircraft is current • Navigation Database must be current to use • Updated every 28 days

  13. Keep our aircraft Flying • IAMSAFE • Pre-flight • Careful inspection of the aircraft • Looking that it is safe to fly • No damage • Where is the tow bar? • How much fuel is on-board • Situational Awareness at all time

  14. Keep our aircraft CLEAN and Safe • After flight • Fueling • Pilot is expected to remain with aircraft during fueling • Fuel to proper levels • Verify that fuel caps are on • Post flight review of aircraft • Leaving the aircraft in the same shape that your found it • Leading edges and nose clean of bugs • No damage • Secure tie down or chocked in hanger
