PREFLIGHT PROCEDURE

Conduct a complete preflight inspection of the wing, checking all assemblies, which have not already
been checked. Every bolt, nut, pin, safety ring, and fastener of any kind should be checked during every
pre-flight. A full pre-flight inspection should precede every flight you make, not just the first flight of the
day.

the pocket. If any section of the Mylar is folded under, de-tension the crossbar, remove as many battens
as necessary and unfold the Mylar.
Along the left leading edge:
Open the main sprog access zipper and look inside, making sure that the crossbar / leading edge junction
is assembled properly and safely secured, struts are properly attached to the crossbar.
Check that the sail is not caught on the crossbar end, or on any of the hardware.
Remember to close the access zipper.
