Question A/G Radio - Questions

Hi all,

I have a few questions regarding the use of Air/Ground Radio, and the phraseology used.

1. If an aircraft lands and vacates the runway, if you want them to park in a certain area or position then what would be the correct phraseology to "advise" them to park though? Surely you can't say "PARK to the right of the red Cessna" because that's instructing them to do something?

2. In CAP431 is mentions that when an aircraft reports that it's ready to cross the active runway, the A/G operator should reply with "G-ABCD After the PA28 has landed no reported traffic", this sounds to me as though the controller is almost instructing the aircraft to cross ONLY after the aircraft has landed rather than advising them?

3. What legal age do you have to be to get your R/T license for an aircraft, and what legal age do you have to be to get your A/G Radio license? (I'm talking about the UK by the way)

Sorry if I'm being dumb, some answers would be highly appreciated.

Thanks very much,

SmoothCruise.
