CHAPTER 1

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This book contains the Standard Operating Procedures covering the VFR operation of C150/C152. Thebook is a integral part of the way to handle an aircraft during VFR conditions. It’s not possible to cover alleventualities and there for good airmanship and common sense is expected of the crew. The speeds andprocedures in this part must be preferred above the AOM/POH. No marks are made to indicate changes onthe previous issue due to the amount of changes.

1.1 SOURCES

Material used from:

- AOM- POH- SOPs VFR General

- Company Notams

1.2 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

The SOPs in this chapter have a direct relation to the execution of a safe flight. They shall be knownthoroughly and used throughout the rest of your career as a pilot. Basically these SOPs inform the studentabout the margins within which to operate, and step-by-step how to execute different flight manoeuvres in astandard way.Using SOPs greatly enhances the safety of flight, especially in non-standard circumstances.

1.3 AIRMANSHIP

Definition: All facets that allow the pilot to control the airplane at any time during the flight in accordancewith regulations in a safe way, on the ground as well as in the air.

During the ground school all different facets that compose airmanship will be illustrated. Safety is a veryimportant part in the mind of every conscientious airline pilot. Adherence to rules and regulations is only thefirst part to incorporate "airmanship" into your existence.

1.4 CECKLIST ISSUES

Pay attention to the fact that this SOP document might have another issue number than mentioned on thevalid checklists. For the valid checklist issues refer to the document control list of SAA.

PREFLIGHT INSPECTION

Note:Visually check airplane for general condition during walk-around inspection. In cold weather, remove evensmall accumulations of frost, ice or snow from wing, tail and control surfaces.

Also, make sure that control surfaces contain no internal accumulations of ice or debris. Prior to flight,check that pitot heater (if installed) is warm to touch within 30 seconds with battery and pitot heat switcheson. If a night flight is planned, check operation of all lights, and make sure a flashlight is available.

(This checklist shall be performed after checking the weather and the crew briefing and before start up.)

Exterior Preflight………………. COMPLETE See AOM/POH supplemented as follows: When removing control wheel

lock, check free movement ofcontrols, and full travel of trim tab.

If draining is applicable, drain firsttanks and then strainer.

When turning master switch on,check proper working of beaconlight and if mandatory for flightalso landing light. For other lightsthe check at daily inspection issufficient.

Position ..……………………….. CLEAR Check that the aircraft position is free ofobstacles and is free to taxi out to taxi-way.

Papers....................................... ON BOARD Check OM for mandatory papers.

Loose items ............................ STOWED No heavy objects shall be left loose to avoidrisk of injuries to the occupants or damageto the aircraft in turbulence or during airexercises.

Seats, Belts, ShoulderHarnesses.................................. ADJUSTED and LOCK Adjust your seat and pedals in the same

locked position. Check Shoulder Harnessesof all occupants are fastened.Make sure passengers know how to close,adjust and open the shoulder harnesses.

Fuel Shutoff valve.................... ON

Radios, Electrical Equipment. OFF

Brakes…………………………… TEST AND SET

Circuit breakers...................... CHECK IN Check that circuit breaker are in. Fuses onlyhave to be checked if one of the systems ismal functioning. The C152 and C150F havecircuit breakers only, the C150 has onecircuit breaker and further fuses. Circuitbreakers may not be reset.

PREFLIGHT INSPECTION

Note:

Visually check airplane for general condition during walk-around inspection. In cold weather, remove evensmall accumulations of frost, ice or snow from wing, tail and control surfaces.

Also, make sure that control surfaces contain no internal accumulations of ice or debris. Prior to flight,check that pitot heater (if installed) is warm to touch within 30 seconds with battery and pitot heat switcheson.

If a night flight is planned, check operation of all lights, and make sure a flashlight is available.
