  Chapter 3: Identifying Hazards & Associated Risks › Leading Accident Causes › Identifying Hazards

  pilot who can see terrain can maneuver to avoid it. • Preflight Planning–Many hazards can be detected through preflight planning. Weather briefings identify hazards. Aircraft performance calculations, preflight inspections, and other routine procedures may identify hazards. • On-board Equipment ... traffic, airspace activity, and other hazards. • Postflight Inspections–Inspecting the aircraft following the completion of a flight may identify aircraft hazards before the next person flies the aircraft. Common items include condition of tires and brakes, security of access panels…

  safety measure, the fuel sumps should be drained before every flight during the preflight inspection. Fuel tanks should be filled after each flight or after the last flight of the day to prevent moisture condensation within the tank. To prevent ... water-wet or damp. Most imitation chamois skins do not filter water. Fuel System Icing Ice formation in the aircraft fuel system results from the presence of water in the fuel system. This water may be undissolved or dissolved…
