Approach Briefing Trainer
Learn the Jeppesen approach briefing method — the correct order, what each item means, and why. Practice the technique before you take it into the aircraft.
For study and practice only
This trainer teaches briefing technique — not for actual flight operations. Always verify against your actual chart and your instructor. Read real values off your own chart; SkyBro teaches the method, you provide the numbers.
Principle: brief selectively, not top-to-bottom
A good briefing is prioritized and threat-focused. Do not recite every number on the plate — call out the items that will change how you fly this specific approach today.

What it is
Verify you have the correct, current chart. State the approach, runway, and airport aloud, and confirm the chart's effective date.
Why it matters
Briefing the wrong plate (wrong airport, wrong runway, wrong approach type, or an expired revision) is a classic setup for a serious error. Say it out loud so the other pilot hears it.
On a Jeppesen chart
Jeppesen: top of the plate — airport name & ICAO, procedure title (e.g. ILS or LOC Rwy 25L), and the effective date band. Cross-check the chart index number.
Practice checklist
Say each item out loud before checking it off — verbalizing catches mistakes and builds muscle memory.
