If the wings are folded and the pilot wishes to perform IBITS, what should you do?

When the wings are folded on an aircraft, the proper procedure prior to conducting an Integrated Built-In Test System (IBITS) check is to ensure that the wings are spread. This is important because the IBITS process often requires specific configurations of the aircraft, including proper wing positioning, to ensure accurate readings and successful completion of the diagnostic tests. Informing the pilot of the status of the wings is crucial for the safety of the operation and ensures that all systems are functioning correctly before proceeding.

Having the wings in the correct position promotes the safety and efficiency of the testing process, as certain systems may not operate correctly if the airplane is not in the proper configuration. This attention to detail plays a critical role in pre-flight checks and maintenance procedures, which are fundamental responsibilities of a Plane Captain.
