AirCom Twins

The aim of this manual is to help you to acquire or consolidate the competences required by ICAO and, to this end, to adopt a personalized method of working.

AIRCOM Twins provides you with two complementary tools which will allow you to fully master the language of radio communications.

Part I is a glossary of terms and phrases pilots and controllers use in their radio exchanges; they are all presented in an authentic context representative of a wide variety of routine and non-routine situations.

Part II is a vocabulary learning guide in which the terms and phrases listed in the glossary are classified by phase of flight; thus, by selecting a particular phase, you will be able to revise rapidly the key terms and phrases relating to that phase.

AIRCOM Twins will be most profitable if used jointly with AIRCOM, the associated English course in radio communications for airline pilots.
