Which type of weather briefing should a pilot request to supplement mass disseminated data?
A
An outlook briefing.
B
A supplemental briefing.
C
An abbreviated briefing.✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
AIM 7-1-5 says to request an abbreviated briefing when you need information to supplement mass-disseminated data, update a previous briefing, or need only one or two specific items. An outlook briefing is for departures 6 or more hours away, and 'supplemental briefing' is not an FAA briefing type.
