9. Secure propellers to prevent windmilling.
10. Disconnect battery.
11. During
typhoon
or
hurricane
wind
conditions, mooring security can be further
increased by placing sandbags along the
wings to break up the aerodynamic flow of
air over the wing, thereby reducing the lift
being applied against the mooring by the
wind. The storm appears to pass two
times, each time with a different wind
direction. This will necessitate turning the
aircraft after the first passing.
12. After high winds, inspect aircraft for visible
signs
of
structural
damage
and
for
evidence of damage from flying objects.
Service nose shock strut and reconnect
battery.
