→Ballast weights (as needed)
[[File:CU ballast weights.jpg|thumb|right|Fitted ballast weights.]]
Ballast weights are stored in on the CUGC bottom shelf of the battery cupboard in the parachute room(next to the office).
# Check ballast requirements and remember the conversion between ballast weight and equivalent pilot weight (x2.5)
The skid has been replaced in Sep 2019. Dragging with the skid on the ground should be avoided if possible and use of the tail dolly is preferred. Dragging on tarmac/concrete should be avoided at all. Inspection of the condition of the skid should be done as frequently as possible to monitor the wear.
Check the glider has valid insurance and ARC during the DI. A copy of the insurance should be in the first page of the DI book, and the ARC behind the seat.
