safety issues

[nickgutnick]

What are some safety issues with the crj-200 that I should know about? I was putting my rollerboard in the overhead bin a few days ago and noticed a screw missing from the base of the bin. So of course I called mtx and had them come out to the plane and fix the problem. Just curious if there are any other things that I should look out for. Anything would help.

Don't forget about the pilots....They're the most dangerous thing in the cockpit....

The nose gear door has a couple of grounding straps. Seems like they are broken alot.

I think MLG doors also have straps, don't remember.

The GLD's and spoilers, spoilerons also have them. select man/deploy to check

Any scratch below the cargo door strike plate needs to be checked out

The ADG placard needs to be in place. Hard to find those sometimes.

The cargo bin liner must not have any perforations (they all do)

Leading edge gap seals. There is a cumulative maximum allowable missing (check CDL)

H2O extinguisher. If the wire isn't intact and the CO2 cartridge is pierced, you need a WHOLE NEW EXTINGUISHER cause they have to weight it to make sure it is properly filled.

Nose gear steering armed placard. Lots of them unreadable.

Seats and or adjustments are no go if they are uncomfortable

Bug washes should be mandatory every turn, so should lav dumps.

All I can think of right now

Fly safe

NLG doors have 2 bonding straps at the aft edge of the door, one on each side. The MLG also has a bonding strap, one each at the top aft side of the strut.
