Threats for this flight
Note any threats specific to this operation. These will carry forward to HOW.
WHAT
Individual preparation. Complete before the verbal brief.
✦ About this phase
WHAT is your individual preparation — the facts and figures you gather before the verbal brief begins. A strong brief concentrates on HOW, not on reading numbers aloud. Complete WHAT independently so the HOW phase can focus entirely on threats, strategies, and shared understanding.
