Default Why don't voice radio communications use FM?

Really? Can you cite some statistics? I'd be very interested in
reading them.


Just look through accident and incident reports. Radio communication
is one of the weak links in the aviation safety chain.


If you're going to make the claim, point to a viable source of information.
Without providing data, it is just your opinion.

I have read thousands of NTSB reports and don't remember a single one where
the technological limitation inherent in AM radio was a significant cause of
the accident.
