I can't seem to find anything online regarding what the above briefing format entails.

I would very much appreciate any advice (links/explanations) that would help me get an understanding of it.

Thanks in advance.

Not meaning to be a troll, but isn't it in your employer's ops manual?? ;)

It's a briefing format designed to highlight the significant threats during an arrival or departure, and to communicate how those threats will be managed. It consists of several modules:

C - Chart
A number of mandatory items, including SID/Transition, STAR/Approach, chart numbers, navaid tuning, final approach track, airport elevation, DA/MDA/RVR, missed approach track & altitude, etc.

T - Terrain
Relevant MSA, location of any significant terrain.

W - Weather
Significant weather, e.g. strong winds, windshear, low visibility, etc

O - Operational
Significant operational requirements, e.g. non-normal procedures, NOTAMs, landing performance, fuel, etc.

Plus
Other threats not covered above.

Lancer - Thankfully I'm not (quite) as stupid as I must look...:p My company don't have it in their ops manual; hence the question. But thanks for the reply.

Buzz box - Thank you a thousand times. I was very surprised when my search in google came up with nothing.:ok:
