If a flight depends on recording data or imagery, what media check belongs in preflight?
- A.Format a card containing earlier unrecovered flight data as a first step
- B.Confirm the memory card or recording device is installed, has sufficient capacity, and is functioning
- C.Assume a card used last week is still installed and empty
Correct answer
B. Confirm the memory card or recording device is installed, has sufficient capacity, and is functioning
Why
A missing, full, or faulty card can mean the purpose of the flight is lost even if the flight itself is safe. Checking media readiness before takeoff avoids a wasted or repeated operation.
