Are there any good online references on how to brief an approach? If so, can
you point me in the right direction? Thanks...


Briefing routine information becomes a litany that no one hears or
remembers.

First make sure of the approach ID and date, then note any non-routine
information.

Set all radios, courses and altitudes that can be set ahead of time.

Go over altitudes to FAF with special emphasis on the FAF or OM crossing
altitude. Without that xcheck, you are only good for non-precision. Note
any step downs. MDA, DH and time to miss, initial miss heading and first
altitude.

All the other info is on the plate and can be referred to as needed. Any
transcriptions you make to another document just add the chance of error.
