An aviation checklist is a tool used to identify any potential risks to aircraft before take-off, flight, landing, and taxiing. It guides pilots and aircraft safety officers in ensuring airworthiness. It helps determine irregularities that need to be addressed immediately to prevent any flight incidents or fatalities.
Using an aviation checklist helps in verifying the safety of the aircraft and ensuring it was configured correctly for the next phase of flight. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) practical test standards require pilots to use the appropriate checklists, not just going through flow patterns or mental notes. It is crucial to comply with aviation checklists to:
meet all safety practices and standards
reduce the risk of life-threatening emergencies,
prevent human error, and
mitigate aircraft operational malfunction.
An aviation checklist should cover crucial areas such the following:
Basic Aircraft Information: Before anything else, list down the essential details about then aircraft such as its model, registration number, and capacity.
Pre-flight Inspection: With aircraft details noted, it’s time to inspect its physical condition, including the wings, engines, and fuselage.
Landing Checks: As the aircraft approaches its destination, pilots execute a series of checks to prepare for landing. This includes configuring the aircraft for descent, verifying landing gear functionality, and establishing communication with air traffic control.
Other Items: After the aircraft has landed and passengers have disembarked, a post-flight inspection is conducted. This involves assessing the aircraft for any damage or mechanical issues that may have arisen during the flight.
Maintenance Checks: Regular maintenance checks are essential for ensuring the continued airworthiness of the aircraft. These checks encompass scheduled inspections, component replacements, and adherence to manufacturer’s guidelines.
