Re: Airfield Cat B & C Briefings

foxmoth, I assume you're not familiar with how aerodromes are categorised, so standard Ops Manual-type wording:-
11.2.2 Category "B" Aerodromes

Category "B" Aerodromes – Aerodromes without particular terrain hazards but which have:
a) Non standard approach aids and or approach patterns
b) Unusual local weather conditions
c) Unusual characteristics or performance limitations
d) Unusual Aerodrome characteristics or which present obstacle, layout or lighting difficulties.

11.2.3 Category "C" Aerodromes

Category "C" - Aerodromes having hazardous or difficult approach patterns, or possibility of difficult weather conditions, or requiring special knowledge of Aerodrome or terminal area procedure.

Performance considerations may also be limiting.
Someone, somewhere, will have briefings already written for these. I am reluctant to reinvent the wheel, and someone else's briefings 2would be very helpful, if available.
