"it's strictly illegal"

Heliport you have probably aswered your own question. Or does then distributing for free make up for it?

Hi all,

quite interesting, that listening to a CD should improve RT.
What´s about proper preflight planning prevents piss pour performance?

You wanna fly, take a map and sit down and best talk out loud, what calls you have to do - think of any replies you might get and how to answer.

Most problems arise, if unexperienced pilots want to do excactly the same readback as given by ATC and if they want to do it right away.
Its not expected by ATC!

Take a second or two or three, after the call to think about what you heard - maybe dial in the course on the hsi or make a note on your kneeboard and then answer the clearence.
You only get crumbly while thinking what to say - think first, then call

I found it helpful to reread the clearence in reverse oder i.e.
ATC: Callsign, cleared to enter via november for right downwind 24, QNH 1004
My normal answer would be:
one double o 4 set, for right downwind via November, callsign

doing it this way, I have the latest information present in memory and while telling ATC can recall the things said before.
