Let your radiotelephony take flight even when you’re stuck on the ground.
With G-UDRT you can practise pilot RT whenever and wherever you have the time.
From the very basics of RT to long cross country flights through complex airspace. Our 38 learning sessions teach standard VFR phraseology and how to apply it.
Practise what you’ve learned with 20 dynamically branching flights. Respond to changing weather, traffic, clearances and more. Just like in the real world.

Tailor G-UDRT to use the aircraft type and call sign you use in the real world. Set your own preferences, activate hands free mode, even edit all the practise flights if you wish.
So, you’ve read the RT books, listened to the online providers, and gone to ground school, yet you find :
- The examples given don’t reflect the scenarios you often encounter when flying.
- You worry about flying further afield, apprehensive about the RT required by other classes of aerodrome and airspace.
- The words simply don’t flow when you’re in the cockpit and concentrating on the radio diverts your attention from flying the aircraft.
- Your mouth goes dry as you reach for the transmit button and you fumble and mumble phrases you know due to nerves alone.
- Your pilot radiotelephony skills are perishable and have decayed after being grounded by bad weather, pandemic or aircraft maintenance.
If any of the above statements are true for you, don’t worry. You’re not alone.
Radiotelephony knowledge and the ability to apply it with confidence is traditionally achieved through repeated exposure to and participation in diverse real-world radio communications.
With G-UDRT in your pocket, you can enjoy your expensive flight time, having mastered radiotelephony from the ground. Our content has been developed by a leading radiotelephony expert, and in consultation with those of us who are still improving. Detailed learning content builds knowledge whilst confidence is achieved by practising using realistically unpredictable and fully vocalised simulated flights.
