CHECK LISTS AND DRILLS
The student must learn all check lists and drills thoroughly so that his actions on the ground and in the air
become instinctive. He should be able to locate all controls, indicators and switches without having to look for
them; to this end the student should seat himself in the aircraft and practice with the aid of pilot’s notes.
EMERGENCY DRILLS
When teaching emergency drills, emphasize seconds will count when an emergency arises. Do not give the
impression that such emergencies are commonplace, and stress the fact that since emergencies are rare, the
unexpected nature of the occurrence demands an instinctive drill which needs to be practised at intervals to
ensure that no time is lost through momentary confusion or indecision. The following drills must be thoroughly
learned:-
i. Action in the event of fire in the air and on the ground.
ii. Emergency communication procedures.
