PRE-FLIGHT

5.1 PILOT'S PRE-FLIGHT CHECK/CHECK A – PRIOR TO FIRST FLIGHT OF THE DAY
Pre-flight checks / Check A are to be carried out in accordance with the Gyroplane Flight Manual.
NOTE: Initially the daily/pre-flight checks may seem a long procedure, but with experience the pilot will soon become familiar with all
aspects of the aircraft and what is correct or not. The check is organised into a logical pattern that makes one complete circuit of the
gyroplane and becomes second nature with practice. This pattern starts with the inspection of the instrument panel and continues around the
gyroplane.
