Sample question from this category

- Flight path, altitudes, emergency duties, lost link behavior, and how they will communicate during the flight
- Lunch plans
- Social media captions
Answer: Flight path, altitudes, emergency duties, lost link behavior, and how they will communicate during the flight. A two minute brief aligns the crew. The observer who knows the plan, the abort words, and the lost link profile can actually help instead of guessing. Basis: AC 107-2 crew coordination.
