One of the jobs crew can perform is making sure pilots complete their checklists; Critical Assembly Checks, Positive Control Checks, and, if done out-loud, pre take-off checklist. Teach your ground crew not to hook-up a towline until they hear the pilot complete the checklist. One club I fly with has a column in the launch log for "positive control checks completed" and won't launch you until this has been done (once per day) at the launch point. I think that's a jolly good idea. I teach to say "Emergency below 200 ft lower the nose land ahead, above 200 lower the nose, land ahead or behind". How accurate are your altimeters during a winch launch? Ian |
