RECREATIONAL PILOT CERTIFICATE: How to preflight a Jabiru
Today I learn how to pre flight a Jabiru 170.
Note #1: I've have been taught to separate the inspection of the fuel/oil systems from the standard preflight routine. This is to ensure that the critical fuel/oil inspections are not accidentally skipped during a lengthy pre-flight inspection where distractions are common.
Note #2: This is a preflight inspection which is done before every flight. However, before the first flight of each day, an inspection of the engine is also done but not shown in this video.
