The one thing you don't get is comm experience - there is a Comm DVD
that's available through Sporty's to practice various types of ATC
communication, and I recommend it.

You can get superlative comm experience by joining VATSIM or IVAO, which
allows you to simulate flights with real people providing ATC by voice that
corresponds precisely to the real thing.

"Precisely" is unfortunately a relative term.
Misinterpretion by pretentious, testosterone-driven simulator pilots usually
results in death.

Quaint, but inadequate.
If I posted this it's because I've tried and seen - quite enough.


It is fortunate for passengers that you are not in charge of their
safety. This task is left to professionals, who are required to have
regular contact with the world of the living.

Really? How long have you been a member of VATSIM? Which pilot client do you
prefer?

That is unlikely to ever be tested, but I think you would be most unpleasantly
surprised.

I am relieved that this is unlikely.

What does that have to do with ATC? I'm already better at radio
communications than many private pilots are.

Your posts prove otherwise.

I haven't discussed ATC communications here, nor have I provided any examples.

Oh contrar, you are a very good specimen of a bad example.
