Practice, Practice, Practice
The program offers a series of 100 practice clearances. You get a Flight
plan for each exercise, complete with a planned routing. You review the
route on the included NOS Low Altitude Enroute Chart and then call up
the Clearance Delivery controller (or Flight Service specialist, or
Ground Control, etc.) to request the clearance. Then you copy the
clearance (using the techniques learned in the briefings) and read it
back to the controller, just like in the cockpit. If you miss the
clearance, the controller can be asked to "say again".
At the conclusion of the exercise, you get a chance to review your
performance and hear how an expert would have read the clearance back,
as well as see the expert's notes.
