What is a outside-check ?
I´m sure you might have experienced this once you were waiting at the gate prior to boarding, the pilot walking around the aircraft and closely looking at the exterior of his aircraft. What is he/she doing ? That is what I´d like to explain in today´s video !
Every pilot has to check if his aircraft, helicopter, gilder, little sports plane or a big commercial jet, hasn´t encountered any damage or leakage from prior flights. Aviators call this regular procedure the outside check or exterior walkaround !
Let´s take the Airbus A320 as an example. After completing our first checks within the cockpit, the last item on the "preliminary cockpit preparation checklist” reads, “EXTERIOR WALKAROUND -- PERFORM !
You have a similar checklist in your car manual, in which you should check your tire pressure, oil quantity etc. prior to a long car journey. So the aircraft manual lists the items which should be inspected whilst doing your outside check.
For example:
• Condition of Pitot Probes ( free and clean )
• Clean Static Ports ( Parts to measure altitude and speed )
• Damages on aircraft nose section
• Chocks in place ( so the aircraft can move )
• Nose wheel structure, tyre abrasion
• Depth of nose wheel damper
• Condition of taxi and runway turn of lights
• Condition of exterior antennas
• Condition of landing lights
• Any leakage of wing tanks
• Strobe and navigation lights on the outer part of wing
• Condition of slats and flaps
• In and outlet of turbine
• Fan blades of turbine
• Tyre abrasion on main landing gear
• Brake wear on main landing gear
• Depth of main landing gear damper
• Possible damages on horizontal stabilizer
• Horizontal stabilizer in neutral position
• In and outlet of auxiliary power unit ( APU )
• Any dents and scratches of wings and fuselage
• Any leaking fluids
• secure closing of doors and hatches
These are only a few important ones listed in the exterior walk around “checklist”.
To approve that you have completed the outside check you need to write down time and your signature into the “Technical Flight Log”, similar to your service check book in your car. Important ! This not a “once a day check”, NO, the outside check has to be performed prior every flight !
The same rule applies for little sports planes, private jets and helicopters, although these aircrafts fly on a less regular basis, so their vulnerable instruments, engine in and outlets are covered with a red protective cover, marked with big letters “REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT”. And safety bolts, which protect the rudders from flapping about in the wind, are also tagged with this warning sign.
More information about the “REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT” in another blog.
It´s required by law, that a commercial jet has to have functional flashlights and reflective vests to properly perform the outside check during night operation.
In the event that something is malfunctioning or broken, we´ll request a certified technician for help. If he can repair the broken part, he´ll state his repairs in the "technical flight log” and approves that the aircraft is airworthy. Otherwise if new parts or a bigger inspection and repair is needed, he will “write it off” and the aircraft is then AOG = Aircraft on ground !
Safety first always goes first !
So the next time you´re waiting at the gate, look out for your pilot performing his outside check !
Next time we´ll talk about the REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT warning pins and tags.
Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this basic introduction video about an A320 outside check!
Wishing you all the best!
Your "Captain" Joe

[@bcgrittner]

Years ago I had a flight instructor who once told me that I took too long doing my pre-flight inspection. I had taken 20 minutes and I was quite thorough. My response to the instructor was "Show me the reg or shut the hell up". He and I never really got along, but never tell me how long I can spend doing preflight. It's my butt and my airplane up there. Do it right - don't rush your pre-flight.

[@Jdtackett0226]

bcgrittner that’s cool that you maintain your vigilance on performing your job and not allowing senior crew to intimidate you. I’ve seen airplane disasters episodes where the copilot didn’t have the nuts to tell the captain that they were fixing to die!

[@SilencedMi5]

Because you're a real pilot and not a poser. Aviation is a "SAFE ALWAYS" environment.

[@millomweb]

@@SilencedMi5 You need to SHOUT that a LOT louder. Boeing, Airbus and other aircraft manufacturers are not hearing you. I just can't believe how badly their systems are designed. Even this walk-around is shite. The level of expected inspection is beyond what is physically possible - often, you are too far away to inspect something properly - such as the leading edge of every fan blade on the engine - inspect for chips that could lead to cracks and fan failure. Working in a very noisy atmosphere is not right for inspection purposes - a fingernail flick of each of those fan blades to make it ring could indicate early hidden cracks that can lead to failures later.

[@Roca891]

That's great if you have the time to do so- however in 121 (commercial passenger) aviation you're under time pressure to get off the gate on time. While you shouldn't rush- you should get your process as efficient as possible. If you make a habit of making the flight late you won't keep your job for long. Also note that every crew is looking at the aircraft before and after each flight and maintenance has to look at the jet every 2 days at a minimum, so there's lots of redundancy if one person misses something.

[@morganphillips9865]

Joe: "Make sure you don't spot any holes or cracks". Me: Okay, I just won't look then.

[@WIRRUZZZ]

He actually does not spin the entire engine. The fan (part he touches) is connected only to a few similar, but smaller sets of blades (low pressure compressor and low pressure turbine). Because you need very high rotational speeds for significant compression to occur it is (as you can see) quite easy to turn slowly.

I remember watching this 3 years ago when it first came out and thought “how cool it must be to get to be up close and personal with these planes every day.” Now I work in maintenance and frequently do the pre-flight checks before we release the planes for flight. Every time I walk one of these I realize how cool it is to get to work with these amazing machines 🛩

Srsly? RyanAir? Ok

[@alphadelta1219]

I read somewhere about someone who decided to leave one tank with fuel and the others empty. They decided to go for a fly the next day and did their pre-flight inspection but didn't want to check the one tank for water. They checked it anyway. What they found was that same tank had accumulated fourteen cups of water because the cap hadn't been on properly and it had rained overnight. That person wrote: The fuel would have cut out just after take-off and I would've crashed into the trees behind the runway. Thank you so much for the videos Captain Joe! I hope to meet you one day. Also, the high visibility vests look cool!

[@martintheiss743]

sounds like they saved themselves from death. the vests are just for a safety precaution to ensure that ground personnel don't get run over by any cart, car, or anything else on the tarmac. Alpha the procedure at all commercial terminals is that the flight crew calculates the reserve fuel on hand at the moment, anticipated fuel needs for said flight, and mandatory reserve add ons and then signal for a fueling to ensure compliance with aviation safety standards. Joe has a nice video on that process.

[@a1an506]

Just wow, what a detailed video this already was. Usually in some airplane documentaries the pilot just says "yeeeah just looking around for leakages and worn off tires...". This for the first time gave me a real insight into what the outside check is. Thank you soo much!

Have you ever grounded an airplane in your walkaround? What were the consequences when you did?

[@Repented008]

I love your cat!

[@HEDGE1011]

opl500 I have. It's our job if something is wrong to have it corrected before flight. That's what happens: maintenance comes out, assesses the situation and fixes it prior to departure.

[@opl500]

Management doesn't pressure you to look the other way if you do find stuff?

[@HEDGE1011]

opl500 In my 29 years with my airline, no, not once.

[@chrisj197438]

[@marvinmuller1085]

I agree! I'd like to know how a brake check after an aborted landing looks like

[@hkr667]

Yes! Parts, looks, specifications, aborted take-off procedures, etc.

[@martintheiss743]

marvin basically after incidents like "overweight landings" and reported situations the brakes are immediately and comprehensively checked to ensure safety. Things can be cured within minutes and hours most of the time but its better to do that than risk safety related crashes.

[@RedSailor1701]

Hi Joe, you shared your morning routine before you left for work, it would be really cool if you could show us your routine from walking into the airport to filing your Flight Plan just before pushback. I for one would like to know all about when you have to sign on, how you find your aircraft, your process of getting prepared etc and how long before your flight you arrive at the airport

[@hangar1891]

There's really nothing special about that, you pass the security checks,you go to the crew room and ask the lovely lady the documentation for your flight and she gives you a bunch of paper. You sign some,check the weather,check the notams,check the flight plan and ask again the lady where your airplane is. If it's close you just walk there like any other passenger,otherwise you get a minivan.

[@martintheiss743]

This kind of preflight check is only to ensure that the pilot can properly program the route of the flight into the computers and hopefully avoid situations like KAL 007.

[@kentyee5333]

Could you elaborate on the brakes. I wasn’t really sure of what you were pointing at. By the way great video, loved it. I’m one of those rampers that does the walk around after the pilot and I never knew what I was looking for because my company never really showed me what to look for. I mainly looked for any damage. Thank you, very informative.

[@kentyee5333]

Christopher Schuster Yeah, my company don’t really teach us what to look for. During training they tell us if the plane aren’t missing anything or have any holes or have any dents or scratches it is good to fly. We don’t do as such a walk through a pilot goes through.

[@X43oPEGASUSo]

Captain Joe, I am a ground crew team leader in LTN (London Luton). I constantly do the "walkaround" check of Easyjet a320 and 319's. I often notice that on the fuel filler cap, there is a small chain that hangs down outside of the cap. The chain is just to connect the cap to the main wing when the fueller is working; but is it a problem if the chain is accidentally hanging outside the cap after he closes it? Should I tell the pilot about it when I talk to him on the headset? I have told them in the past and it's a 50/50 split as to whether they're okay to fly with the chain hanging out or not. What are your thoughts?

[@keithpun215]

I am a mechanic in Hong Kong who handling Cathey Dragon's A320/1 most of the time. That small chain need to be checked in every weekly check, most of the time that chain is just disconnect from a ring like keychain, the condition of the small chain is totally fine. I rarely see that chain hangs down when I perform W. A. C. for short transit flight

Its a tradition like sailing. Ultimately the captain of record at the moment is responsible for anything that happens to a ship, crew, cargo, or otherwise. It is just part of being a good flight crew member to have an examination like this done as per standard before signing for a flight since they can ask for services before they are responsible for the plane.

[@lucasmin3757]

Oh you can spin an engine blades with hands... Awesome!!!

[@sarahk236]

I always thought they would have been too heavy.

[@WIRRUZZZ]

The fan (part he touches) is connected only to a few similar, but smaller sets of blades (low pressure compressor and low pressure turbine). Because you need very high rotational speeds for significant compression to occur it is (as you can see) quite easy to turn slowly.

[@WIRRUZZZ]

@@sarahk236 It is quite heavy, approximatly one tonne (the part he is spinning), but most of it is very close to the axis of rotation, so the moment of inertia is small and the fan blades are a nice long lever. And obviously the bearings are very good. I really want to see how difficult one of those is to spin, now!

[@millomweb]

Due to the bearings, there is very little friction - so easy to turn. Very often you'll see an engine slowly rotating - and that's just a bit of breeze going through it doing that !

[@RaindropsBleeding]

>If you forget this, the nose gear won't retract upon takeoff what happens when this occurs? Do you have to do an emergency landing?

[@bleedaviation201]

ECAM displays (A320) main landing gear RED which means the gear isn't retracted and you can go ahead and make an emergency landing but mostly it's the job of ground personnel to remove the pin before engaging pushback service

[@WIRRUZZZ]

Not really an emergency landing. You can fly with the gear extended, although you have some speed restrictions and burn more fuel. You may have to burn some fuel anyway, as the aircraft might be too heavy to land immediately. If you cannot dump fuel (or it gets your passengers to their destination faster) you can also just continue (bur keep an eye on your fuel gauges and do not end up like these guys: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapag-Lloyd_Flight_3378)

[@stevehofmaster7489]

Hi this was great,very informative I really enjoyed this video.Can you do more like these and concentrate a lot more on the engines.Great job Captain Joe.

[@alfinshaji8907]

Does the caption and the first officer need to check outside or only one have to check.

[@AviatorInspirations]

It depends on the airline and their policies. At my airline we alternate who does the walkaround after each landing.

[@b.bhandari5673]

But nowadays you fly for boeing 747 (Cargolux airline) Right.

[@hunterbruyere5052]

Bhuban Bhandari Yes he is.

Thank you for sharing this procedure. It's always nice to know and learn more, despite it's totally a different field from mine :)
