However, that sort of assumes the aeroplane has a check list! Mine hasn’t and the type, as a whole, has not got one as far as I know. What would concern me on a checklist as it only covers the things that are listed (I know that sounds a a bit obvious) but split pins in place, tension of cables and flying wires not altering, ods and ends that just don’t ‘seem’ right etc.
Very true Melv, I only fly the basic & common type and thats the PA-28, the checklists available are pretty comprehensive, I certainly leave my head under the cowling both sides for longer than warranted so I can see if everything “looks how it should look”, I always very gently rock a wing backwards & forwards to see if the other reacts proportionally in the opposite direction, I’m very paranoid about the wings falling off lol, generally there are alot of highly dangerous things that could happen to a plane that you could survive, but if the wings fell off I fear the end would be imminent.
Anyone else got any little paranoia’s?
