Excellent service from Amazon; A MUST book for pilots July 2, 2010 Pilot Maria Thanks Amazon for a very very fast delivery of my books. Sincerely appreciate that because I need them for my class.
The book is great and would even be better if there'll be more exercises; i.e., ATC/pilot exchanges.
A must-have book for student pilots.
Thank you!
Pretty good, not awesome August 13, 2009 Lycurgus (Oklahoma) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a good book to read if you're a student pilot and need to become more comfortable with ATC communications. It served that purpose for me and was worth the money.
The do's and don't's of aviation radio communications June 29, 2009 Donald L. Cline (Mesa, Arizona) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am a ham radio operator and quite comfortable talking on the radio, yet I found this book to be a valuable resource in how to properly communicate with the tower and air traffic control. I would expect it to be that much more valuable to someone who is not familiar with radio procedures or to whom the prospect of keying a microphone and talking to someone is scary. It covers all the way from your first communication with Ground and then the Tower, to Flight Watch, Flight Service Stations, Class G through Class A airspace, and how to announce your intentions at an airport not serviced by a control tower -- and even airports serviced by a control tower at a different airport. I recommend this book to anyone considering flight training.
A Great Resource! June 15, 2009 Andrew Kinzler (Madison, WI USA) I am an aviation enthusiast with minimal flight communication training. This book is written using plain english to explain pilot to ATC communications. The maps, diagrams and illustrations are incredibly helpful as well.
Concise airplane communications November 2, 2008 Jennifer 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am a new pilot, and this book is amazing. It clearly explains all aspects of talking on the radio, from untowered airports, to complex Class B hubs, and everything in between. I recently read chapter 10 on the flight service station system and used that to great effect on my solo cross country flights. It boosts confidence and explains all the ins and outs from the pilot's view and more inportantly, gives insight to what the Controllers are dealing with. This is an exceptional book, highly recommended for all types of pilots.
