EXTERNAL INSPECTION
To assure complete removal of frost, ice, snow, or slush from the wing and
control surfaces, as a minimum, conduct a visual and tactile inspection up to
two feet behind the protected surfaces, at one location along the wing span.
Also, ensure the control surfaces contain no internal accumulations of ice or
debris.
