The type of radio installed in the sailplane
What is
a Becker AR-4201 VHF Transceiver
Where sailplanes must be 10min prior to a scheduled flyover

The eight canopy cautions
What are
1. Use caution when opening and closing the canopy.
2. Use caution when opening the canopy in high winds.
3. Install the canopy cover when operating in high temperatures.
4. Keep the canopy closed and locked as often as possible.
5. Guard the canopies when getting in and out of the sailplane.
6. If the rear canopy cable is disconnected, the canopy will open completely and damage the strut.
7. Ensure the canopy handle is in the full open position when closing the canopy. 8. Do not lift the canopy by the window.

All Bailout Warnings
What are
1.Delaying bailout below 2000ft AGL greatly reduces chances of survivability
2. Bail out on the left if the canopy doesn't separate from hinges
3. It is critical to push free of the aircraft
4.Bailout opposite the direction of a spin
5. If the aircraft is uncontrollable, get out any way possible
A student in pre-solo must first receive at least a "F" in these four areas before they may attempt an inside slackline recovery.
What are
GAC, aerotow, normal pattern, and landing?
The CTS for a Low Pattern
What is
a. Arrive over the entry point at extended base entry altitude (+/- 100 ft) AGL.
b. Maneuver as required on base and turn final to accomplish a safe pattern and landing.
c. Roll out on final no lower than 200 feet AGL.
d. Maintain pattern airspeed (–0, +5 knots) using the pitch of the aircraft. Use air brakes to maintain a desired glidepath.
e. Use sufficient control inputs to maintain ground track and aim point on final?
