    This document provides a checklist for a preflight check of a Boeing 737 aircraft. The preflight check involves a visual inspection from the ground to check for any obvious defects, damage, or issues. It includes checking fluid levels, exterior surfaces, control surfaces, engines, landing gear, tires, doors and panels. The inspection route is outlined, and checks snow/ice removal if present. The preflight check ensures the aircraft's continued airworthiness prior to each flight.

    Preflight Check - A visual check to ensure the continuous serviceability of the aircraft prior to each flight.
    Check - Examination to determine the functional capability or physical integrity of an item.
    Walk Around Check (WAC) - A visual check from ground level for obvious discrepancies without any
    external means (stairs, tools) to determine exterior obvious dangers, leaks, proper operating equipment,
    security of attachment, required servicing.
