  • Chapter 10: IFR Flight › Departure Procedures (DPs) › Radar-Controlled Departures

    Radar-Controlled Departures On IFR departures from airports in congested areas, a pilot normally receives navigational guidance from departure control by radar vector. When a departure is to be vectored immediately following takeoff, the pilot is advised before ... initial heading to be flown. This information is vital in the event of a loss of two-way radio communications during departure. The radar departure is normally simple. Following takeoff, contact departure control on the assigned frequency when advised…

    there are fewer demands on the pilot’s attention, leaves the pilot free to concentrate on precise control of the aircraft and better equipped to deal with problems that might arise during the last segment of the flight ... This chapter focuses on the current procedures pilots and air traffic control (ATC) use for instrument flight rule (IFR) arrivals in the National Airspace System (NAS). The objective is to provide pilots with an understanding of ATC arrival…

  • Chapter 7: Radio Communication Procedures › Traffic Advisory Practices at Airports without Operating Control Towers › Airport Operations without Operating Control Tower

    Understanding Proper Radio Procedures Understanding proper radio phraseology and procedures contribute to a pilot’s ability to operate safely and efficiently in the airspace system. A review of the Pilot/Controller Glossary contained in the AIM assists a pilot in understanding standard radio terminology. The AIM also contains many examples of radio communications. ICAO has adopted a phonetic alphabet that should be used in radio communications. When communicating with ATC, pilots should use this alphabet to identify…
