ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Practice, Practice, Practice
The program offers a series of 100 practice clearances. You get a Flight plan for each exercise, complete with a planned routing. You review the route on the included NOS Low Altitude Enroute Chart and then call up the Clearance Delivery controller (or Flight Service specialist, or Ground Control, etc.) to request the clearance. Then you copy the clearance (using the techniques learned in the briefings) and read it back to the controller, just like in the cockpit. If you miss the clearance, the controller can be asked to "say again".

At the conclusion of the exercise, you get a chance to review your performance and hear how an expert would have read the clearance back, as well as see the expert's notes.

100 clearances to choose from; practice as often as you like, at your own pace!

Experts guide you through clearances with helpful prompts and feedback.

Compare your repsonses to those of experts in each scenario.
