  • Airworthiness Requirements Ac S – Areas of Operation: Task B
    AIRWORTHINESS REQUIREMENTS AC S – AREAS OF OPERATION: TASK B How do you prepare for a flight? PAVE: Pilot, Aircraft Environment and External Pressures. PILOT A pilot must continually make decisions about competency, condition of health, mental and emotional state, level of fatigue, and many other variables. AIRCRAFT A pilot frequently bases decisions on evaluation of the airplane, such as performance, equipment, or airworthiness. This task will concentrate on the aircraft (ASEL – Airplane Single Engine Land). ENVIRONMENT The environment encompasses many elements that are not pilot or airplane related, including such factors as weather, air traffic control (ATC), navigational aids, terrain, takeoff and landing areas and surrounding obstacles. Weather is one element that can change drastically over time and distance. EXTERNAL PRESSURES The pilot must evaluate the three previous areas to decide on the desirability of under- taking or continuing the flight as planned. It is worth asking why the flight is being made, how critical it is to maintain the schedule, and if the trip is worth the risks. P – Pilot for the Private Pilot: Start with I’M SAFE: Illness, medication, stress, alcohol (.04), fatigue (acute and chronic) and eating/emotional factors. If any of these factors apply, you should not fly. As a private pilot, you are required to carry your pilot’s certificate, medical and a government ID. As a private pilot, you are allowed to carry passengers (not for hire) – 61.113, fly when visibility is less than 3 miles (SVFR – Special VFR) and can fly without visual reference to the surface. Special requirements for the Private Pilot are: Must be a Private Pilot to take off and land within (KSFO) Class B Airspace (AIM 3-2-3) and can fly at night.
