Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel!
In today's video I'll be showing you how to best prepare for your next departure and approach briefing, using the mnemonic WANNTRAM which stands for:

W - Weather

Mention the highlights such as gusts, crosswinds, potential tailwinds on take-off, wind shear reports, visibility of obstacles, thunderstorms in the vicinity, runway contamination such as water or snow and if so does a low temperature affect my take-off performance as engine anti-ice is required.
If deicing is needed due to prevailing weather, mention where deicing platforms are and that you have the required checklist at hand.
If it‘s a sunny day and nothing worthy to mention, you can tick off the weather by just saying CAVOK.

A - Aircraft

Mention the type of plane you are flying. An A319 handles differently at rotation speed than a heavy A321. Make your captain aware of that. Many airlines fly many different types of planes often on the same day.
Also, mention the engines. I fly two different types of planes the 747-8 with the more modern GEnx engines and the 747-400 comes with two different types either RollsRoyce or general electric CF6 engines. Highlight the differences such as engine start procedures and if you are above 5000 feet or temperatures above 30 degrees single engine start procedure is required.
Mention tech-log entries or minimum equipment list items that could impact your departure and climb out phase or require a packs-off departure due to performance reasons.

N - NOTAMS

Use a text marker and circle or highlight the points that are affecting your departure and flight plan routing. They are called a highlighter for a reason! Make your captain aware of maybe closed taxiways, inoperative VORs, runway closures, etc. and physically show him what you've highlighted.

Noise Abatement Procedures

When can we start the APU, are special engine start-up procedures in place, is there a special noise abatement routing to be flown, are there certain altitude constraints to be met during the initial climb, do the thrust reduction and acceleration altitude differ from normal?

T - Taxi

Point out taxiway hot spots and runway crossings or during low visibility operations point out taxi speed limits.
Again be aware of which plane you're sitting in, your wingspan and taxi weight can be an issue and therefore special taxi charts were put in place for the 747 /8 or the Airbus A380.

R - Routing

Mention the expected SID, the standard instrument departure. Brief from the box, meaning read out the route point for point from the FMC, including altitude constraints, speed restrictions, initial climb altitude, transition level, minimum sector altitude, which radio aids you've inserted on the radio navigation page and why, point out the pre-selected radar frequency and when to contact it and last but not least mention the routing for the engine out departure and what your plan of action looks like.

A - Automation

Meaning what kind of lateral and vertical guidance by the flight directors you'll be using, respectively LNAV and VNAV.

M - Miscellaneous

Mention anything that was not covered in the previous items. For example, if you were to cross a country border during climb out and it is requested of you to call the next radar sector before evening crossing the border, have the frequency ready. The same goes for oceanic clearance requirements, at some airports, you get the clearance on ground prior to take-off, be ready for that.

As a passenger pilot, mention crew related procedures in case of an emergency, when will you address the passengers via the PA etc.

Glad that there is so much I can understand.

When I started following this channel, there were 5k followers and I was just out of college. Now I have my pilots licence and I am now working for an airline which operates the A320. This channel helped me grow a lot, and I try to make a difference by helping out anyone who has anything on their mind.

Thanks Joe :D

I thought M was for miscellaneous items:
Aviator glasses on.
Chuddy check.
Hair combed.
Teeth whitened
Coolness checked check.

"Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance"

[shaymccarthy]

I feel like Joe should make a vlogging channel that would be epic

[EibaProductions]

That is so interesting to hear. I'm currently studying medicine and we hardly (and unfortunately) use checklists. Mostly due to historic reasons.
However, they are a great way of reducing risk and in order to save lives. Hopefully, I can bring in some change in the future.

Oh wow, thanks, Captain! I am only 12 years old and I know a lot about Aircraft and Aviation because of your channel. I am willing to be a pilot one day and I am also playing realistic flight simulators(Some not really realistic but it captures the concept of aviation) like XPlane 11 and more. I also know most of the procedures in a flight. And thanks again for the new tutorial! I never thought of that "WANNTRAM" thing hehe.

There r 3 pilots I'd like to meet once in my lifetime...
Captain Joe, mentour ND Guillaume laffron...
Because these guys motivate me alot towards my goal.😊🙏

[WiseFinn]

Pre ordered the keyring! I have been waiting for so long! Ever since I saw them on your IG story I have been checking your website and Instagram. Yes!!! And you even replied to my comment on your IG post so I went and turned notifications on.

[rudolfhuijs]

What a positive guy! I'm not a pilot but he transmits good vibes, confidence and knowledge. In the middle of lockdown we need positive attitude like CJ. Thanks Captain!

[CadetClark]

A good checklist for the decent is WIRED (Weather, Flight Instrumentation i.e. GPS and altimeter, Radio frequencies, En route/approach briefing and the Decent Checklist). Thanks for keeping us educated while flying seems to be at a temporary all-time low!

[Boodieman]

Joe, I wish you had an actual recording of a briefing.

[TMM]

What i learn from working from airport is that briefing such an important and helpful thing. It prep me for rest of day. Thus more efficient. Don't need to stop and think because I already think during briefing

[Leo-xvis]

Joe: *starts filming videos outside when It's illegal to*

[SimonSNB]

It's so nice to have good quality audio again. It was so painful with the old mic

[davidcole]

I couldn't stop staring at tha tCub...what a BEAUTY!

[benharton]

Always interesting!! From Canada !! I really like what you do !!
From a 25000 hrs + pilot !!
Thank you Man !! Keep on going

[permonjackson]

Still has the classic logo intro. Nice :)

[mattesrocket]

Wow, the air line at 7:13, Who else has seen this?

[peterredfern]

Nothing beats proper preparation, thanks captain, 👏👏👋👋👍🇦🇺

[purudate]

Great details are provided. For a naive passenger like me, now I appreciate how skillful it is to steer an aircraft.
