- Nota Adicional1
- Data recorded during the ground check are used to prepare a ground check error curve. Establishment of a ground check capability will enable maintenance personnel to restore a VOR to normal operation, following most repairs to the facility without a flight inspection. It is desirable to maintain the ground check error curve (maximum positive error to maximum negative error) within approximately 2.0°. If the facility cannot provide this level of performance, a broader value should be considered.
- Contexto
- In consideration of the time interval between taxiing and requesting take-off clearance, and observations of eyewitnesses, it is believed that the pilot conducted a ground check of the engine and propeller functioning before take-off.
