Which of the following elements is routinely covered in a pre-tow briefing?

Pre-tow briefing centers on coordinating the movement and who is responsible for what. Knowing crew assignments sets who operates the tow, who handles braking, who spot checks the path, and who communicates with the flight crew, so everyone knows their role. Path confirmation locks in the planned taxi route, clearance, and key checkpoints, ensuring the team moves in a coordinated, safe manner and can quickly respond to issues. Tire pressure is part of equipment readiness and maintenance checks, not the main focus of the tow briefing. Wing shape isn’t a factor in tow operations, and the cargo manifest relates to loading and balance rather than how the tow will be conducted.
