The approach briefing is of major importance in commercial aviation. Conducted by the flight crew,
it ensures a thorough and mutual understanding of the upcoming descent and approach phase. With
regard to a future implementation of reduced crew operations (RCO), an AI-based system is currently
being developed that is able to follow the spoken approach briefing, check for its completeness and
inform the pilot about possibly missing items. This paper describes the language processing part of the
overall system. A commercially available automatic speech recognition system is trained on aviation
specific vocabulary and strategies for dealing with cockpit noise are discussed. Steps towards a possible
certification of the system according to the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Artificial
Intelligence Roadmap are outlined.
