Volume 15 - Communications

JAA approved textbook written to European aviation regulations and standards.

Jeppesen and Atlantic Flight Training have teamed up to produce these top quality ATPL training books with the philosophy of training pilots to fly - not just pass tests. The ATPL books are thorough and comprehensive, yet utilize full color graphics to make complex concepts easy to grasp.

Some topics include:
• Definitions
• General Operation Procedures
• Relevant Weather Information
• Communication Failure
• VHF Propagation
• Distress and Urgency Procedures
• Aerodrome Control
• Approach Control
• Area Control
• Allocation of Frequencies

Communication is an essential skill for every pilot. The accurate and concise use of the correct phraseology enhances safety and results in a more efficient flight. Nonetheless, communication by radio is often an area that is dreaded by the student pilot. Whilst these notes are intended specifically to prepare the prospective Airline Transport Pilot for the JAR ATPL (A) examinations, they also serve to demystify some of the terminology that is encountered.

This volume takes the student from the basic principles of VHF and HF communication to its application in the VFR and IFR environment. The learning objectives for the JAR ATPL (A) Communications examination cover all aspects of radio telephony phraseology in the aerodrome, approach, area, and radar control environment. The distress and urgency procedures as well as the procedures to follow in the event of a communications failure are also covered.
