GROUND PROCEDURES
After briefing a stereo route, it is the student's responsibility to get a weather brief. When
filing a DD-175, the pilot will pick up the DD-175-1 (weather brief). Once at the aircraft, a
thorough preflight of the aircraft shall be performed by all crewmembers.
The sequence of copying ATIS and Clearance may vary. It is possible the pilot will want
to pull out of the chocks before completing the Before Taxi checks in order to clear the plane
captain early. The importance of clearing the right side of the aircraft while the aircraft is
moving cannot be overemphasized. Once clear of all aircraft in the ramp area, the call to Base
and Ground for taxi clearance shall be made. In VT-86, the instructor will call Base.
a. Taxiing
(1)
Clear the right side of the aircraft.
(2)
When clear of the aircraft line, initiate the Taxiing Checklist.
(3)
In the hold short area, switch the radio to Tower.
(4)
When the crew is ready, contact Tower for takeoff.
During the checklists there should be a smooth flow of information between the pilot and
SNFO. While verbalizing the flight instrument check, ensure: the altimeter is set within limits;
gyros are erect, stable, no off flags; VSI shows XXX; EHSI heading XXX; airspeed shows Zero,
