A slight thread drift but having just read a thread in the military forum about someone distracted doing the walkround, it seems he was using a written checklist as an action list as he walked the aircraft.
I am curious how most people were taught to do a walkround, or opinions as to which is best and why
Is it:
1. Check each item on the written list as you go, one at a time.
2. Check say, the port wing, then review the checklist to see all items checked.
3. Look at the aircraft and do the walkround from memory, only using the checklist when in the seat.
Thanks
