Training Syllabus And Course Contents
The "Standard Course" is normally conducted over two
full days in the classroom and conforms to the requirements of Lasors
Section B Appendix A. Coupled with some self study and experience gained
during their flying training Students normally will normally be well
prepared to sit the Written and Oral Tests with the CAA Approved
examiner. The CAP413, ANO and AIC's are primary reference materials and
some pre course study is preferred as this frees up more classroom time
for further discussion and simulated Aircraft/ATC exchanges.
The actual structure, pace and duration of any
course will depend on the experience levels of the attendees. To this
end groups of broadly similar experience bases are preferred. Where the
2 day course is scheduled the Preferred minimum class size is 3 and
maximum is 10. However additional time is set aside for more
practice/revision if required on a class wide, group or individual
basis. Whilst a primary aim of the course is preparation for the CAA
tests we are actually more focussed towards preparing students to
operate comfortably and efficiently in the Real World.

Requirements Notes:
The Flight Radiotelephony Operators Licence (FRTOL) entitles the
holder to operate the radio equipment in any aircraft. FRTOLs issued
prior to April 1998 contain the word ‘Restricted’, this is often
mistaken for a ‘VHF Only’ limitation which, if applicable, will be
endorsed on the reverse of the licence (the frequencies that will be
used by a General Aviation aircraft are almost exclusively VHF, the ‘VHF
Only’ limitation will not therefore be likely to cause any
difficulties). In the UK the term ‘Restricted’ referred only to the type
of equipment that may be operated (see ANO Schedule 8). Older radio
equipment designed for use by specialist radio operators who were
‘Unrestricted’ is no longer in use, therefore the word ‘Restricted’ has
been eliminated from the FRTOL. The privileges however remain
unchanged. |
