Debrief objectives
The objective of the debrief is to determine if the desired mission objectives were achieved, identify lessons learned, and define aspects of training needing improvement. The end result should be all participants gaining solid direction after the debrief on h...
Briefing
Briefing The best briefings are concise and factual. Their major purpose is to inform—tell about a mission, operation, or concept. At times they also direct—enable listeners to perform a procedure or carry out instructions. At other times they advocate or per...

4.4 - Power and Energy Management.
4.4 Power and Energy Management. Power affects airspeed and therefore turn radius and rate. Power is also used to control energy. Energy provides the potential to maneuver. Nonoptimal energy levels (usually expressed in airspeed) can result in degraded tur...
4.5 BFM Cross-Check.
4.5 BFM Cross-Check. During a BFM engagement, we need to keep track of two things in order to be successful. First, we need to monitor our own aircraft performance to execute our game plan. Second, we need to monitor the Bandit’s position relative to us an...
