Lock the glove box as circumstances demand. (P. 437)
Carry the master key for your own use and provide the attendant with the
valet key.
Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. In the

are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
