How long do you have to make your Post-Arrival Walk Around?

The correct timeframe for completing the Post-Arrival Walk Around is within 10 minutes. This duration is established to ensure a swift and efficient assessment of the aircraft and surrounding environment after arrival. Conducting the walk-around promptly allows for the identification of any immediate concerns or safety issues that may need to be addressed before proceeding with other tasks. By limiting the time to 10 minutes, it encourages vigilance and prioritizes safety in ramp operations, as it reduces the risk of overlooking potential hazards that could affect operations.

While longer durations may seem beneficial for a thorough inspection, adhering to the 10-minute guideline strikes a balance between thoroughness and efficiency, ensuring that all essential aspects of ramp safety and operations are maintained in a timely manner.
