Check condition of nose release (if installed).
Check that the PITOT pressure head in the nose cone is clear.
When blowing gently into the tube, the ASI must register
(with pneumatic valve set at “POWER ON”)
After heavy landings or after the aircraft has been subjected to excessive
loads, the resonant wing vibration frequency should be checked (its value
to be extracted from the last inspection report for this serial number).
Check the entire aircraft thoroughly for surface cracks and other damage.
For this purpose it should be de-rigged.
If damage is discovered (e.g. surface cracks in the fuselage tail boom or
tailplane, or if delamination is found at the wing roots or at the bearings in
the root ribs), then the aircraft must be grounded until the damage has
been repaired by a qualified person.
This inspection must also include a thorough check of the power plant.
