"Talking on an aviation radio and understanding air traffic control instructions can be one of the most intimidating aspects of flight training. In "Say Again, Please" Bob Gardner explains how the ATC system works and teaches readers what to say, what to expect to hear, and how to interpret and react to clearances and instructions. His conversational-yet-concise writing style will help increase your comfort level when using an aircraft radio. Inside are "talk" examples of typical radio transmissions explaining how ATC works, as well as simulated flights that clearly demonstrate correct communication procedures in each class of airspace. This hands-on book covers "The ABCs of Communicating, Understanding Radio Equipment, Communication etiquette and rules, VFR/IFR and emergency communications, Air Traffic Control facilities and their functions, and much more. Let "Say Again, Please" help you learn how to communicate in the air."--Provided by publisher
