PREFLIGHT INSPECTION (Continued)
3 LEFT WING Leading Edge
• It is essential in cold weather to remove even the
smallest accumulations of frost, ice, snow, or
slush from the wing and control surfaces. To
assure complete removal of contamination,
conduct a visual and tactile inspection up to two
feet behind the protected surfaces at one
location along the wing span as a minimum.
Also, make sure the control surfaces contain no
internal accumulations of ice or debris. If these
requirements are not performed, airplane
performance will be degraded to a point where a
safe takeoff and climb may not be possible.
• Prior to any flight in known or forecast icing
conditions, check that PITOT/STATIC tube(s) and
STALL warning heaters are warm to touch after
turning PITOT/STATIC and STALL HEAT switches
ON for 30 seconds, then OFF. Make sure the pitot
covers are removed prior to turning PITOT/
STATIC HEAT ON.
