During the onboard wheelchair pre-flight check, what indicates the check is complete?

• A. In place
• B. Secured under the seat
• C. Requires assistance
• D. Not checked

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that the onboard wheelchair check is complete when the chair is properly positioned for use. “In place” signals that the wheelchair is in its designated location, ready to be deployed if needed, and that the crew has confirmed its presence and basic readiness. If it’s described as secured under the seat, that describes a storage or securing method rather than the completion status. If it requires assistance or hasn’t been checked, those indicate the check isn’t finished. So being “in place” shows the item has been located and is ready, marking the completion of the pre-flight check.
