GA Aircraft SecurityComplied by S. Guru PrasadExtracted from the AOPA AIPORT Security Brochure

Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle died in an airplane accident in Manhattanwas a headline that we all came across on October 11th, 2006. Astragic as this accident was, the fall out of this GA accident is spellinggloom and doom for the GA pilots. Both the print and broadcastmedia are jumping on the badwagon of politicinas clammering tostop GA overflights over their cities. Now more than ever, securityhas become part of general aviation on every level of flying or flighttraining. With this in mind the PAPA board on October 12th decided toput out this circular to all its members to enhance the securityneed.Here’s what to look out for:· Anyone trying to access an aircraft through force—without

keys, using a crowbar or screwdriver.· Anyone unfamiliar with aviation procedures trying to check out

an aircraft.· Anyone who misuses aviation lingo—or seems too eager to use all

the lingo.· People or groups determined to keep to themselves.· Anyone who appears to be just loitering, with no specific reason

for being there.· Out-of-the-ordinary videotaping of aircraft or hangars· Dangerous cargo or loads—explosives, chemicals, openly

displayed weapons—being loaded into an aircraft.· Anything that strikes you as wrong—listen to your gut instinct,

and then follow through· Pay special attention to height, weight, and the individual’s

clothing or other identifiable traits.

How to be more secure:· Become familiar with and practice existing airport security

procedures.· Utilize aircraft door locks at all times when the aircraft is

unattended.· Consider the use of auxiliary locks to further protect aircraft

from unauthorized use.· Consistently lock hangar doors and close security gates to

prevent unauthorized access or tampering· Properly secure ignition keys separate from aircraft.If you have any doubt about the unauthorized intentions of thealleged intruding individual, do not hesitate to call the airportmanagement and national toll free line set up for this purpose.1-866-GA-SECURE

Winter “NOTAMS” ReviewBy Lou J. Wipotnik, ATP - MCFI

FAR91-103 Preflight Action – Requires you to be a “Know It All”,pertaining to any flight. For winter operations a few worthwhilecontractions should be familiar in your Notam aviation vocabulary.

Contractions from the AIM (5-1-3) used in” Notams.”BRAG Braking Action = Good – Suggests caution, conditions could

change.BRAF Braking Action = Fair - Always be on guard.BRAP Braking Action = Poor – Be extremely careful.BRAN Braking Action = Nil – Reconsider Plans or Airport/s.FRNZ SLR Frozen Slush on runway/sIR Ice on runway/sLSR Loose Snow on runway/sSIR Packed or Compacted Snow and Ice on runway/sSLR Slush on runway/sSNW SnowSNBNKS Snow banks – Along runways also watch the taxiways.WSR Wet Snow on runway/sWTR Water on runway/s – Could freeze anytime especially after

sundown.

Note: During the winter snow and ice season, it is always a good ideato call ahead to the local FSS, FBO and or your flight school. Check onhours of operation for fuel, storage, pre-heat and groundtransportation, etc.

*Taxi – Takeoff – Landing Tips:Whenever the taxiway is wet or slippery, reduce your taxi speedaccordingly. Take precautions to avoid jet and prop blast, andwatch for snow ridges and unplowed areas. Such hazards can snaga wheel and pull you off a taxiway or runway. To avoid an inadvertentslide during your run up, find some dry pavement on which to plantyour airplane’s wheels.If the runway is slick, snowy, or slushy, a soft-field landing is yourbest approach. The extra propwash makes the rudder and elevatormore effective, and you have the positive control response neededto make corrections during the flare and touchdown. Because acontaminated runway reduces braking action, your landingdistance can easily Double. Be prepared to go around rather thanland long.Select your touchdown spot based on the runway’s condition. Insome cases, landing off centerline may be a good option if it putsyou on dry pavement. Balance this decision against your touchdownspot’s proximity to snow banks at the runway’s edge. If you mustland on a slick runway, remember that on patchy ice or snow,heavy braking can cause a wheel to lock and a tire to blow. Landingwith a slow touchdown speed will reduce your need for heavybraking.Slippery runways can make crosswind operations especially difficultbecause wheel friction may not enable you to maintain directionalcontrol. Unless the pilot operating handbook makes otherrecommendations, a rule of thumb is to use one-half themanufacturer’s demonstrated crosswind capability as the limit whenlanding on a slippery runway. A better choice, perhaps, would be todivert to an airport with better wind and/or runway conditions.

*Notes: Tips were taken from AOPA’s Flying Smart Jan.97 article “Tipsfor Winter Takeoffs and Landings”

QUIZ ANSWERS1. C. The easiest and best for safety, is to place the aircraft is

a heated hangar. You still must take precautions againstmelted snow/ice running into control surfaces, aroundcontrol cables, etc. and re-freezing. The airplane must becompletely wiped dry before going outside in the freezingair.

2. B. Is most correct - However, consult the POH.C. Means the engine is probably flooded.

D. Never prop an airplane! Except, maybe in an emergency, orif it doesn’t’ have a starter, (i.e. J-3 Cub etc.).

3. C. Recommend 20°F or less. Always check your POH, FBO,School and/or Club rules.

4. C. You can also do your pre-flight in the warmth of thehangar before it is taken out.

5. D. Most likely.C. Only if it started and then died.B. Will usually back-fire with puffs of black smoke.A. You did a lousy pre-flight!

6. C. With the throttle set at 1000RPM, just use the primer slowly toplace fuel directly into the cylinders. Carb heat helps vaporize thefuel.A. Using the throttle will only flood the carburetor and kill the engine.A back-fire can cause a fire.

7. C. Most sources say you should allow not more than 60 sec. in coldweather and 30 sec. in warm temps. If you don’t see the oil pressureneedle move at all (doesn’t have to be in the green range at idle),shut the engine down, winter or summer.

8. C. The engine does not falter with smooth application of full throttle.A. May not have warmed sufficiently.D. Oil temp may still be low and the engine not sufficiently warmed.Note: To save engine wear, don’t do a run-up until cyl. Heat temp is inthe green. Without cyl. temp. , five minutes warm-up minimum!

9. C. NEVER! NEVER! prop an airplane, except, maybe, in an emergency,or if it doesn’t have a starter, and only after you have been checkedout on the proper procedures and pit-falls.

10. C. Some NOTAMS don’t get posted or in the system right a way. It isbest to phone ahead to the airport manager or FBO, and get thelatest up-date on conditions.
