Operations & SafetyQuestion 92 of 100

Before a rooftop mapping flight, the RPIC holds a short briefing that covers the flight plan, each person's role, the exact phrases the VO will use to call traffic, and the plan if the control link is lost. This practice is the essence of:

a.Automation management of the flight controller software
b.The manufacturer's scheduled maintenance program
c.Airspace authorization coordination with ATC
d.Crew resource management (CRM) using all available resources

Explanation

CRM is the effective use of every available resource — people, hardware, and information — and a preflight crew briefing that assigns roles and standardizes VO calls is a core CRM technique. Automation management concerns how the pilot supervises the aircraft's automatic modes, not crew coordination. Maintenance programs and airspace authorizations are separate tasks that a briefing may mention but does not define.
