As 130th's Primary Operations Officer, I anticipate the Lakeville airplane will see a significant increase in usage, which will likely see a significant increase in small mishaps, particularly tire flat spots and tail tiedown ring contacts.</div>

N413CA already has a wee flat spot on its Right main tire. Thorough pre- and post-flight inspections are necessary. Also, the airplane has 3 Discrepancies in AMRAD. Always check Discrepancies before you request a Release. The ORM form asks if you have checked
for Discrepancies. Do not assume N413CA is clear.</div>

Lakeville is blessed with a hangar with plenty of clear space around it but still be aware of hangar rash. MNWNG is famous for damaging airplanes with hangar rash. I will not be very compliant with pilots that damage our airplane at Lakeville.</div>
