Every flight really begins well before the engine is even started. Part of this process is called the preflight inspection. The goal during the preflight inspection is to ensure that all systems are working properly and that enough fuel and oil are on board for the intended flight. In this video we'll walk through the process to complete an external preflight inspection on a Cessna 172.

Suddenly I'm massively interested in how to preflight the exterior of a Cessna 172!
😍👀😂
🤣🤣🤣same!!
Its just me but I would not pour any fuel sample back in, bad practice IMHO
In places where the temperature gets below freezing, you should rotate the prop (opposite the normal direction of rotation) so the bottom blade is vertical. That helps drain any water that might otherwise collect and freeze in the spinner that will cause an out o balance situation when started. It also allows for easier inspection of the engine intakes and alternator belt.
also helps you get access to check alternator belt
Clockwise rotate?
@@Davi3038849844 Yes, this would generally be clockwise when viewed from in front of the prop (some airplanes have props that rotate counterclockwise when viewed from the cockpit such as the right engine on some light twins). I edited my comment to clarify that you should manually rotate the prop opposite the normal direction of rotation.
1:12 She looks relaxed as she raises the aileron. This is wrong, there should be a habit of holding the aileron firmly. A good gust of wind is enough to leave a man without fingers. My friend works at the airport, he saw this happen to one guy. The weather was fairly calm, but there was a gusty wind. The victim said that he lost his vigilance, at that moment a strong gust came from above. Three fingers were cut off, like this guy was the victim of a maniac with garden shears.
Checking the tire pressure should be done with a pressure gauge. You cannot tell if the pressure is correct just by looking at or touching the tire unless it is way off.
She should have looked into the exhaust pipe to make sure no birds have decided to make a nest in there and that it’s free of any obstruction as far as she could tell. And if the engine is cool to the touch, perhaps a gentle pull on the exhaust pipe to check its’ security. You don’t get a second chance to do a preflight. Once your airborne it’s too late if you missed something. Do your preflight right the first time. And don’t let anything distract you during preflight.
very good my friend
All Three sumps? I only know of one and she must have some pretty long arms to pull on the valve. Also, antennas and lights need to be checked. On a windy day, you may not want to stick your fingers into the aileron hinge areas.
3 is correct
What an attractive guide

Nah, he's just politely and respectfully complimenting, calm down
sounds like nilered but calmer
The most precursory inspection I’ve ever seen….missed whole sections of the airframe, such as the belly, underside of flaps (rollers, actuator, bracket, etc). Good overall summary, but far from complete for the standards my students need to have. Is this why students think that by just doing a 3-minute lap around the plane they have aptly deemed a plane worthy of flight? 😮
The plane is pushed back too far in its spot so both the wing and tail tie downs are slanted forward. They should be either both straight down or pulling in opposite directions. There are no chocks so if the wind were to move the aircraft forward, all the ropes would be loose and it could easily be damaged by a gust of wind.
The guy on the ladder is standing on the top steps which is dangerous. These are typically placarded with NO STEP because it’s easy to overbalance with the weight that high. I’m sure we’ve all done this before, but it really should not be in a training video.
I hat3 climbing the wing step, i almost always slammed my left outside foot into the ground
This is way TOO MUCH WORK. Fuck that. I just wanna fly.
Unless it's meant as a joke, I really hope you don't fly with that attitude.
Go fly with an commercial aircraft then ;)
