Candidate Instructions

You will hear a total of 25 recordings of aeronautical communications. After each communication you will hear a number of statements. The number of statements is indicated on the screen.

The statements check your understanding of the details of the communication.

If the information in the statement is wholly correct according to the communication select the AFFIRM option on the screen for that statement.

If the information in the statement is wholly or partly incorrect according to the communication select the NEGATIVE option on the screen for that statement.

If some or all of the information in the statement is not contained in the communication select the NOT STATED option on the screen for that statement.

You may change any or all of your responses up to the point that the question screen refreshes.

The communications and statements are played ONCE only unless you select the SAY AGAIN option. When you select the SAY AGAIN option the communication you are listening to and all its statements will be repeated.

You may select the SAY AGAIN option at any time during a recording and as many times as you like during the test. However, each time you select the SAY AGAIN option, the total number of different recordings you will hear during the test is reduced by one.

For ease of distinction, in all recordings the female voice represents the voice of the air traffic controller and the male voice represents the voice of the pilot.

You are advised to take notes as you listen.
