Door forward of the wheels
Front-Door Airstream
As flown on our 33' Classic. The lap starts at the door, runs down the curb side, around the bumper and up the street side, and finishes at the tongue.
Preflight · Checklists
Before the rig moves, one of us walks a full lap of the Airstream, the way a flight crew walks around the airplane before every departure: same start, same direction, every time. This is that lap on one page, and the cabin checklist that goes with it.
Two sheets for the outside and one for the inside, the way we split the work: Dan walks the lap, Heather secures the cabin. The exterior lap is drawn like an aircraft inspection, ten stations, start at your door and keep the trailer on your right. The interior sheet is grouped by zone, so it fits any floor plan.

As flown on our old 25' Flying Cloud. Same lap, same direction. It crosses the tongue at station 8 and closes back at the door.
Heather's side of the preflight. Grouped by zone (bathroom, living area, galley, bedroom) plus systems and the exit, so it fits any layout. Start at the far end, work toward the door.
