We’re seeking feedback on our draft advisory circular (AC) on radiotelephony procedures.
Clear, concise and accurate radio communications is an essential component of aviation safety. While it is not practicable to detail phraseology examples suitable for every situation, the use of standard phrases when transmitting a message reduces the possibility of ambiguity.
The purpose of our draft AC is to provide a comprehensive resource of standardised and best practice radiotelephony procedures to help ensure uniformity in radiotelephony communications.
This is the first AC relating to radiotelephony procedures, so we are seeking feedback as to whether the content provides adequate guidance on:
- how to provide clear, concise and accurate radiotelephony communications
- the use of standard phrases in radiotelephony communications.
Consultation closes on 11 February 2025.
