OF, a rant it may be, but a correct rant!
On the 225 we tried to get away from the parrot brief, but it was a struggle due not only to habit, but to an Ops Man Part A that was a bit old fashioned in this respect. My pet hate was the Aberdeen landing brief "LDP will be 100' and 40 kts, in the event of an engine failure before we can go around, after....zzzzzzz zzzzzz (I had usually dozed off by then). So the same old same old, and NO MENTION of the only variable, which is the selected go-around Vtoss (choice of 65 to 80 in steps of 5). Completely pointless, but gets a box ticked in someone's mind.
