PPL Radio Procedures ????
Hi , im 15 in a few days & have been training for my PPL Just over a year. I have been going over circuits for the last 3/4 weeks & aparently i cant move any further until 16 when i solo, so looks like its circuits for the next year !!!! WOW Boringgg.....But all experience i guess! Anyways onto the question.....Radio Procedures...
The hardest part of learning to fly i am finding to be the radio. I am trying to learn the radio and need some help,
I train @ Leeds Bradford. Ok , Here goes...
1st call for standard circuit should be amid take off point and go something like "G-_ _ Downwind L/R Hand 32/14"
depending on runway use of course. is that correct ?
Then What should ATC say? Should they give me a number for the circuit? If not what do i say to get a landing slot....Then when it comes to base, Is this correct "G-_ _ L/R base"?? .... And then wait for ATC to clear you on finals ?????
WOW Its all so frustrating....Please help !!!! Thanks
