Crew and IMSAFE

Each crew member checks themselves privately (Illness, Medication, Stress, Alcohol, Fatigue, Emotion) and confirms fit to fly. Only "fit to fly" is recorded, never the answers. Someone who is not fit stays unconfirmed and comes off the crew list. Tick it yourself if you have an account; otherwise the RPIC records your verbal confirmation.
