May 19, 2000 · Titusville, FL

A factor in the accident is the inadequate monitoring of aircraft control by the checkout pilot.
These match the airframe or engine model. Whether each one applies, and whether it's been complied with, depends on serial numbers, equipment and logbook entries. Applicability must be confirmed by a mechanic against the aircraft's records.
