Hi Guys

Is anyone able to recommend any study material for the UK CAA Radio Licence?

Pat,

CAP452 (http://www.caa.co.uk/cap452) and CAP413 (http://www.caa.co.uk/cap413) would be what you're after.

Not the most enthralling of reads, and I won't ruin the endings for you, but definitely worth a serious look at before your exams.

CAP413 is a good place to start

Flight safety sense leaflet 22c offers everything that you're likely to encounter on your FRTOL test.

It Does NOT however cover everything you'll ever need to know.

CAP413 and the UK VFR Guide (http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/64/VFR_Guide_2011.pdf) will pretty much cover everything you need.

Expect the examination to concentrate heavily on emergencies, and you'll also need to be clear about UK altimeter setting procedures and services (Basic, traffic, deconfliction). Most of the rest of it is common sense.

And for fuggsake note that the word "fully" does NOT EXIST in aviation English.

You cannot be "fully" ready or "fully" establishd any more than you can be partially ready, or partialy established ( the correct phraseology for this is "localiser established")

Grr!

...any more than the words 'establishd' or 'partialy' exist in non-aviation English.
