For goodness sake, uplinker... Just don't land on a runway that's got an aeroplane on it! You will never get airborne if you start briefing that stuff.
Thanks for the tip, Capn, I will try to remember that !

During the approach brief (clue: you're already airborne); would you rather have someone droning on for 5 mins about all the things you can both read on the approach plate, (and have flown hundreds of times), or would a better use of time be to think about the unlikely stuff: baulked landings, brake failure, discontinued approaches, Comms failures etc.?

Having had to remind more than one chap over the years what certain ground marshalling signals mean, I tend towards the latter.
