Pre-takeoff briefing of passengers about the use of seat belts for a flight is the responsibility of

A

all passengers.

B

the pilot in command.✓ Correct Answer

C

the right seat pilot.

Explanation

14 CFR 91.107(a) prohibits taking off unless the pilot in command ensures that each person on board has been briefed on how to fasten and unfasten the safety belt and shoulder harness, and has been told to fasten it for surface movement, takeoff and landing. The duty belongs to the PIC, not to the passengers themselves or to whoever occupies the right seat.
