Spring is upon us, and that means it\u2019s time to take to the skies! Before you hop into the cockpit, you want to be sure your plane is up to code and running smoothly. Review the items below to ensure a safe and happy flying season!<\/p>\n

Check Your Maintenance Documents<\/h2>\n

As the years go on, it\u2019s easy to lose track of your aircraft\u2019s maintenance history. \u201cDid I make that repair last year, or was it the year before?\u201d Assuming you have all the necessary paperwork on-hand, this should be a quick and easy item to review that can help you stay in touch with your plane\u2019s wear and tear and allow you to address any aging parts.<\/p>\n

Standard Check-Ups<\/h2>\n

Before you take your plane out of hibernation, it\u2019s always a good idea to check all its vitals<\/a>. This means changing the oil, checking tire pressure, examining fuel lines, testing your battery and electrical components and inspecting any gauges for accuracy. Thorough check-ups can help maintain the life of your aircraft and can help prevent future safety hazards as you enter the spring season.<\/p>\n

Damage Inspection<\/h2>\n

Depending on your climate, winter can have unforeseen effects on your plane. Be sure to check for cracks in your seals, gaskets, wings and landing gear that could have been caused by cold temperatures or ice. If you notice something, notify a professional before your first scheduled flight.<\/p>\n

Have a wonderful spring and summer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
