TIMING of use of dent and buckle chart.

[ballpoint]

Some clarification from a licensed engineer:
A walkaround is in maintenance terminology defined as a “GVI” which stands for General Visual Inspection.
To be performed from ground level from an arm lenghts distance. No stairs required.
A GVI is seen as sufficient to detect obvious discrepancies.

My company uses transparent flagnote stickers te be placed near a dent. Each sticker has a unique reference number, corresponding with the B&D card.
A dent without sticker is considered a new dent which needs assessment before flight.

Hope this helps.
