Which of the following is NOT a phase of LZ/PZ operations?

Communicating isn’t a standalone phase in LZ/PZ operations; it’s the information flow that makes every phase possible. The defined steps are selecting a suitable landing zone, marking it so pilots can see and aim for it, and controlling the site to manage personnel, vehicles, and aircraft during the operation. Each of these has a clear objective and sequence, and effective communication supports them all—sharing why a site was chosen, conveying how it will be marked, and issuing instructions to crews and pilots. Since communication works across the process rather than standing as its own separate phase, the option that describes it is not a phase.
