Hello Joel
"We are using runway 20. Wind is 240/10, so we have a crosswind from the right. We will rotate at 60 knots. If we encounter a problem prior to rotation, we will come to a stop on the runway. If a problem occurs after rotation and there is sufficient runway ahead to land, we will do so. If there is insufficient runway ahead to land, we will look to land ahead, no more than 30 degrees either side."
Using the word 'we' is ambiguous, who is actually going to fly the aircraft, using 'we' is like saying 'we have control'--With two pilots at the controls it is always essential to know who is in control and when, and if, the situation may change, this is very important during a skill test when the examiner may have to take the role as commander to conclude the flight
Saying, "if you encounter a problem we will come to a stop on the runway" in my opinion is a dangerous statement." I would define that as:
If we have have an engine failure, fire or problem that would render the aircraft un flyable I will stop.
For instance if the door opened on the C152 it would be a problem but we would not stop. Always consider that some problems sometimes can be dealt with more safely in the air.
You are also saying after take off you will re-land if there is a problem, again you are putting a very ambiguous potentially dangerous statement into your mind- would you really re-land for any problem? Beware of making a minor problem into a major one by misunderstanding. An off airfield landing (or re-land) is not something you should elect to do lightly.
You also state that you would only consider landing within a 30 degree area either side of the centreline-so if there was a housing estate within that area you would land in it rather than the field 45 degree to the left? I would replace your 30 degrees with "In the event of engine failure after take off I will land in the safest area available"
Also remember that the ability to turn safely through a larger angle increase with altitude.(and experience).
Its a shame that many pilots never ever consider a local brief, Eg runway length & areas to avoid after TO in the event of an EFATO or even noise abatement.
In regard to pre flight briefing, as an examiner, I expect the candidate to point out how to get out of the aircraft in an emergency, the use of the seat belts and the position of the fire extinguisher and first aid kit before flight and the operation of any emergency equipment appropriate to the flight.
At some stage before flight, I do it it during the pre flight briefing, I would aslo tell the candidate that in the event of a major emergency I will take control of the aircraft by announcing, "I have control". you will respond by saying " You have control". I will then fly the aircraft to a safe place and may ask you to assist with any checks that need to be actioned.
