Recently I have booked 2 lessons on the same day.
Arrive, do full pre-flight checks, fly lesson, land, have a cup of tea, walk back out to the same aircraft.
So, my question is.... what pre-start checks should I do before the second flight?
What I have done -
A walk round just to look for anomalies with structure and tyres. Not so much prodding / moving as my initial check.
Oil level.
Fuel contamination check but only from fuel strainer (ie, lowest part of system. C152)
ie, much less than what may be termed Check A.
I should reassure readers that cockpit checks, after-start, power checks, and vital actions (including full & free and the RobP cinch) were done in full on every occasion
