KM Malta Airlines has offered a behind-the-scenes look at the checks carried out to ensure its planes are ready for their next journey.In a video shared on social media, the national airline takes viewers through a process known as a “turnaround check”, showing the various inspections carried out between flights.The process begins with a walk-around inspection of the aircraft, during which maintenance personnel examine its exterior for any signs of damage that may have occurred during the previous flight.This includes checking the aircraft’s structure for dents or other irregularities, as well as inspecting the instruments and numerous sensors located around the plane, particularly towards the front.
