Normal Operations Observation
This aviation checklist supports observing normal flight operations to improve safety and compliance. It covers aircraft tie-down, pilot preparedness, weight and balance documentation, and proper placarding of inoperative equipment. Auditors review adherence to SOPs including checklist use and flight following, evaluate takeoff and climbout with clear abort points and required callouts, and confirm correct LOP procedures for piston aircraft. Approach and landing checks include reviewing wind and landing considerations, stabilized approaches, and a committed callout. It also validates airstrip directory information against actual conditions. The template captures audit details (aircraft, pilot, route/duration, date, preparer, notes) and prompts risk assessments and suggestions for each finding.
