Air Band Radio Handbook - Softcover

Air band radio listening enables you to eavesdrop on the conversations between aircraft and those on the ground who control them, and is an increasingly popular and fascinating hobby. It not only assists in the recognition of aircraft flying overhead, but also provides an insight into the complex world of air traffic control. David Smith, an air traffic controller by profession, describes the types of air band radio available and how to use them. The book's full appendices contain comprehensive, up-to-date lists of VHF, UHF and HF frequencies and callsigns, reflecting many recent changes.
