3.2. PRE-FLIGHT CHECK - AIRCRAFT WALK-AROUND
shown in Figure 4-1.
If ignition switches are turned ON, a propeller movement can
cause the engine starting with consequent hazard for people
nearby.
Visual inspection is defined as follows: check for defects, cracks, de-
lamination, excessive play, unsafe or improper installation as well as
for general condition, presence of foreign objects, slippage markers
etc. For control surfaces, visual inspection also involves additional
check for freedom of movement. Always check the ground in the area
of the aircraft for evidence of fuel, oil or operating fluids leakages.
