I've poked around that aircraft as far as they let me, and seen the
inside of an engine but not the wing. In the preflight checklist
training film (just watched it again) the control check precedes
engine start. They move the controls to the limit and look out the
cockpit window to confirm the ailerons, elevators and rudder moved
in the proper direction, without first flipping any switches.
