MM/DD/YY AC 90-113B B-1 APPENDIX B. EXAMPLE OF A BRIEFING FOR NON-IFPV AUTHORIZED PILOTS B.1 Introduction.
B.1.1 Operator’s pilot-in-command (PIC) is responsible for all aspects of the flight.
B.1.2 IFPV personnel will not ask or require them to do anything outside the regulations or their operations specifications.
B.1.3 Comply with operator policies and procedures.
B.2 Mission.
B.2.1 IFP locations. Cover all scheduled validation locations and intentions.
B.2.2 Discuss procedure legs, altitudes, and airspeeds to be flown (i.e., initial, intermediate, final, missed approach, and holding).
B.2.3 Discuss, if the OEAs are to be flown, how they will be flown, who will define the track to be flown, etc.
B.2.4 If an airborne obstacle assessment is to be flown, discuss how it will be flown.
B.2.5 Discuss a proposed route for efficiency, air traffic control, weather, fuel locations, and other operational needs.
B.3 Operating Rules.
B.3.1 14 CFR Part 91.
B.3.2 Flight plan type. Visual flight rules (VFR) and/or instrument flight rules (IFR) operations are authorized during IFPV activities. However, the weather at the location of the IFPV activity must meet the requirements of this chapter. Visual meteorological conditions (VMC) are mandatory during obstacle evaluation, night evaluation, VFR area evaluation, visual segment evaluation, and departure procedure evaluations.
B.3.3 Weather – VFR / IFR, departure, en route, destination, alternate.
B.3.4 NOTAMs – departure, en route, destination, alternate.
B.3.5 Temporary flight restrictions.
B.3.6 Emergencies. During an emergency the flight validation will terminate immediately.
B.4 Company/Operator Requirements.
B.4.1 PIC will follow all company/operator requirements.
MM/DD/YY AC 90-113B B-2 B.4.2 There will be no pressure to operate outside the company/operators rules.
B.4.3 PIC follows company/operators flight following rules.
B.5 IFPV Requirements.
B.5.1 Will comply with FAA IFPV requirements.
B.5.2 Brief the crew to ensure understanding and comfort with the mission requirements.
B.6 Post Mission.
Obtain/verify contact information for the Chief Pilot, Director of Operations, and Principal Operations Inspector.
