To get a complete weather briefing for the planned flight, the pilot should request
A
a general briefing.
B
an abbreviated briefing.
C
a standard briefing.✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
AIM 7-1-5 says a standard briefing should be requested any time you are planning a flight and have not received a previous briefing or preliminary information; it is the complete briefing. An abbreviated briefing only supplements earlier information, and 'general briefing' is not an FAA briefing type.
