This book has been conceived and produced primarily in order to help students, to acquire the RT knowledge, skills and techniques they will need to communicate competently, concisely and effectively with Air Traffic Service Units, when flying in accordance with the Visual Flight Rules (VFR).
The skills taught by the book cover all ICAO standard procedures, as well as United Kingdom differences to those procedures.
The VFR RT phraseology and procedures covered in Chapters 1 to 12 of this book are those laid down in ICAO Annex 10, Volume 2, and the ICAO Manual of Radiotelephony, Document 9432-AN 925; these items of phraseology and procedure are those agreed internationally and which govern VFR RT practice around the world.
Chapters 13 and 14 cover differences in RT phraseology and procedure used when United Kingdom Air Traffic Service Units communicate with pilots in United Kingdom airspace. Footnotes throughout the book also refer to differences between ICAO RT practice and United Kingdom RT practice.
