The recommended "2 minute debrief" which I use is A) Anything unsafe? B) Anything non standard? and C) Any unanswered questions or concerns? 90% of the time there is nothing to discuss. The other 10% is usually pretty quick--about 2 minutes. It is sometimes deferred to van ride or hotel for breakfast/dinner.

Very surprised most majors wouldn't SOP a few seconds debrief, even if it isn't much more than a nod and discussion of any troubles. It is encouraged in medical field after cases, usually also is a 10 second "that was ok" or any discussion of any issues if any. Doesn't have to turn into a major M&M session.

Debrief.....seriously? Unless something unsafe or nonstandard who gives a ****?! Some people just need to hear themself talk. I am not trying to be the worlds best airline pilot. I just want to fly safely and go to the house.

Speaking of a TOTD...
...commenting on whether the US will allow Norwegian Irish unit permission to fly into Boston, completely overlooking NAFTA (Clinton) and TPP (Obama).

It's on the checklist here at CPZ as well. I always felt that a 'debrief item' is as simple as saying 'great job', or 'thanks for all the help with that last minute runway change'. Or, as a more formal 'yeah, we'd better file a crew report/ASAP because xxxxx happened'. More of a memory jogging device on the checklist than anything else. But I don't want to wade into the deep waters of tooldom so I'll leave it at that.
