Answer:

The information is in AIM 5-1-1(f):

Step-by-step explanation:

If you request a briefing, describe yourself as a pilot and give these information:

type of flight scheduled; for instance, VFR or IFR.

Number of the plane or name of the pilot.

Type of aircraft.

check-out airport.

The flight path.

The Plane altitude.

ETE & ETD

Example like: This is J35670, I would love a standard briefing for a IFR flight from DKEB to SNEV at 2200', ETD at 1200Z, ETE 3h19
