Radio Telephony Practical test

We can provide training and testing for the CAA Radiotelephony Licence. Training will be conducted at Gamston for the CAA RT Practical test by Tim Darby a Boeing 737 Captain.

Tim Darby Allow 3 hours for all Briefings, "Flying" the route and De-briefing. All
testing is conducted using modern computer-based routes on the RANT System developed by Oddsoft Ltd http://www.oddsoft.co.uk/

Reference material is CAP 413, http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/CAP413.PDF and either The PPL Course by Jeremy Pratt Book 2 or The Air Pilot's Manual Vol 7 Radiotelephony.

Candidates should study CAP 413 as the test is based on the Standard
Phraseology contained in it.

Candidates are advised to organise a training session either with ourselves
or their own school to ensure no points have been misunderstood and it is
unlikely a pass will be achieved without some form of formal study.
