GA passenger briefing
Some information put out there by the FAA Safety Team (FASST).
A Pilot’s Guide to Passenger Briefings
You’re probably familiar with the passenger briefings you hear on airliners, but have you ever stopped to think about what else the passenger briefing in a GA aircraft should include? Find out what might be missing from your GA briefings on page 16 of the July/August issue of FAA Safety Briefing, online at http://1.usa.gov/SPANS.

Good article:
A few other ideas/items:
I'll let them know what I'm doing prior to an unusual maneuver - i.e. during an approach: "we're a little high, which is good, but I'm going to turn the airplane sideways a bit to get us down".
During the flare: You're going to hear a horn, that's normal - it's just a signal that we're about to stop flying, which is what we want to do when landing.
And aircraft specific:
The red "GR UNSFE" light is normal - just means the landing gear is up.
Yes, that's gas you smell, and it's normal

Very early in my flying career, I took a ride on a charitable fundraiser, after which I commented to the pilot that I thought it would be a good idea to brief his passengers about how to exit the plane in an emergency. He told me (in graphic colorful undiplomatic terms) how he was invincible, and that only he would open the aircraft door after an emergency landing.
Later in my flight training, I decided that despite his ugly demeanor, he was still wrong. Ever since then, I always briefed my passengers.
