CHAPTER 1. Introduction To Weight-Shift Control Medical Summary Before approaching the WSC aircraft, a pilot must take a moment to refl ect upon current medical, physical, and psychological conditions. During this time, a pilot should evaluate his or her ability to conduct the fl ight considering self, passenger, and people and property on the ground. Using the “I’M SAFE” checklist is a smart way to start a prefl ight before getting to the WSC aircraft. Prior to fl ight, assess overall fi tness as well as the aircraft’s airworthiness.
