117
Q

The following is a list of priorities that apply to any situation encountered in flight. Pilots
must adhere to these priorities during every flight.

Once aircraft control is assured, pilots should set and verify the avionics are correctly

tasks. Pilots should closely monitor flight parameters while programming various
avionics equipment.

A

Navigate

118
Q
