It may also be worth talking to the Air traffic Service Unit at your local airfield to understand the FPS format that they use and the information which they require. For various reasons airfields can require none, some or all of the following:-

Captain's name
Fuel endurance
Area of operation
Duration of flight
etc.

In addition to passing information in the format described in CAP413 it also makes sense to readback in the order that information is transmitted by the ATCO/FISO since he/she will have a natural flow in annotating an FPS which most likely follows the order in which they transmit information.
