Feedback

  • "A great source to review all radio communication skills in uncontrolled and controlled environments. 
  • Excellent Quick Reference by Thor from La Porte, IN Concise reference guide. Easy to look up and use. Spiral binding.
  • This is an excellent quick reference and a good book to have in your flight bag. I carry it in mine all the time. As a new pilot it is helpful to refer to the examples in the book when dealing with a busy towered airport environment.
  • What a great reference by Vidal from Prescott AZ - Glad I purchased, took the fear out of advanced instrument radio communications, but also cleared up some confusion I had about basic VFR pattern radio calls. Wish I had it sooner.
  • From a Customer from Ft Pierce FL - Very helpful for foreign students
