briefings

Hi!

My problem is that I don't have Jepp charts available anymore, and I have to use Spanish AIP charts, which come in a completely different shape, and in my humble opinion a bit sloppy.

Although I'll fly a single piston (thus I'll be the one and only) and practise on the flight simulator, I'd like to make it properly not to forget anything important and be safe (I need to talk aloud to myself this things, and perform it as multicrew otherwise I forget things)

I would be very grateful if you could tell me how you perform your chart briefings.

Thank you!

Pablo

Thanks!!!!

Hi Mike!

Thanks for the info. Those d!mn Jepps are the best. You don't value them until you don't have them.

What about a good dep briefing?

Thanks again!

Brief starts approx 100 nm fm TOPD, (depending on the sector length) having obtained destination ATIS, alternate VOLMET/ATIS and then proceed as follows:

Aircraft condition (snags),
Destination Notams,
Alternate notams-if applicable,
Holding time available,
Descent procedure i.e. VNAV/VS/LVL CHG, SPD restrictions etc,
Approach chart brief, IN LOGICAL SEQUENCE,
Freq, Inb courses, OM chk alt, DA/MDA, artprt elev, MSA,
Intermediate approach alt,
Final Approach fix/point,
Glide path angle if other than standard, ROD approx,
MAPT,
Minimums vs Actual wx conditions = approach ban,
Circling minimums,
RWY Light system to be expected when visual etc,
Missed approach procedure- Flap 15 LNAV/HDG SEL/HEIGHT/RESTRICTIONS/Max Cont Thrust during G/A, etc,
Anti icing-segment considerations,
Alternate route/ arrival-delegate tasks,
Speeds, VREF, min app spd, clean spd,
Auto brake,
A/P A/T procedure,
Runway length beyond G/S and conditions/special procedures,
After landing i.e. full rev thrust/idle,
Auto brake status/requirement,
APRT Routing, Stand No,
Anything that has to be mentioned, if unsure discus with PIC/FO,

Seems like along task, however it takes about 10 minutes to set up and brief, during which time hand over control to the PNF so you can concentrate on setting up the arrival and briefing D whole sequence of events. If the arrival changes during the arrival segment then delegate to the PNF to set up the approach and the brief as applicable,(some times it happens, late rwy change),
Adhere to SOP’s and apply CRM. Don’t be afraid to ask/seek help.
Anyone care to comment, I am open to any constructive critic.
Hope this helps.

Safe Flying
