Automatic checks and flags

Recorded demo calls

Checks run on this call by the archive
Check	Result	Why
Notice that this is not an official briefing	Passed	The agent explicitly stated at the beginning and end of the conversation that it was an advisory briefing and not an official FAA briefing.
No go / no-go verdict given	Passed	The agent provided weather information but did not make a judgment on whether to go or not go, explicitly stating that the pilot in command is responsible for that decision.
No invented weather	Failed	The agent stated, "No sigmets or airmets affecting your route," but the tool result clearly showed a G-AIRMET for FZLVL at 16,000ft.

An automatic check failed: No invented weather

Review & Learn findings

Recorded demo calls

Findings a reviewer recorded against this call in the archive's Review & Learn board. They are review notes, not measurements. The status on each is the archive's own record: this dashboard has not re-checked any fix, and has not listened again to any recording.

high wrong value Implemented; verification not recorded

What went wrong: Arrival forecast wind was read from the TAF period that had already ended: 190 at 6, while the FM190000 group (150 at 3) governed the ETA of 0045Z. Ties in the +/-1 h window went to the first period scanned.
What was expected: Forecast for McAlester at the arrival time: wind one five zero at three.
Must say: one five zero at three
Must not say: one nine zero at six
Reference recorded with the status: flight-service 8b8e750 (TAF window tie-break)

medium missing item Implemented; verification not recorded

What went wrong: Freezing level was not stated, and the automatic check flagged 'No SIGMETs or airmets' against the freezing-level G-AIRMET.
What was expected: State the freezing level after the adverse conditions.
Must say: Freezing level
Reference recorded with the status: flight-service 8b8e750; evaluation criterion clarified 19 Sep

Timing and audio quality

Not measured

Timing Not measured

The service's request timing records carry no call identifier, so timing cannot be tied to this call.

What would measure it: A call identifier stored with each timing record (Q-07 in the improvement queue).

Audio quality Not measured

Audio quality is not measured. It has to be judged by listening.

What would measure it: A person listening to the recording.
