State who will be flying the take-off - and what anyone else should do if there is an emergency at the time.
NB the best course of action regarding fields for EFATO.
But do try to avoid sounding like a total "Captain Speaking" pratt with half-a-dozen tin bars on your epaulettes!
how true beags!
just tell them what they need to know in order to keep them safe and you safe i.e. how to vacate the aircraft, what safety equipment you have, what direction to run from aircraft and the do's and don'ts....
Get them familiar with the seat belts and doors as silly as it may sound - in a rush of panic - the twin locking system on a PA28 and other such types is enough to catch anyone out...I've even found myself wondering why the damn thing wont open a few times!
