SECTION 8 - RADIO TELEPHONY PROCEDURES AND PHRASEOLOGY CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1.1 The importance of adhering to the procedures prescribed in this section cannot be overemphasised. The investigations of the near-collision panel have revealed that misunderstandings introduced through incorrect R/T procedures have been responsible for more near-collision than any other single cause. 1.2 The phraseology and procedures detailed in this section are to be adhered to in order to ensure uniformity, they may, however, be modified or extended by Air Traffic Controllers as occasion demands, but such modifications and extensions should not prejudice their basic meaning or intention. 1.3 In order to deal with any unusual situation which may occur, the Controller must exercise his best judgement in the use of additional or other phraseology. In such cases he should use supplementary rather than substitute phrases. 1.4 Efforts should be made to keep transmissions as brief as possible, and to dispense with all unnecessary words, phrases, etc. which can quickly lead to frequency congestion. RADIO GUARD 1.5 All ATC s shall maintain a continuous guard on the appropriate radio frequencies throughout their tour of duty. 1.6 Should it be necessary to suspend the radio guard for any reason, such as to inspect the movement area, etc., the break in the radio guard shall be kept as short as possible. 1.7 Any aircraft in radio contact with the station shall be informed that there will be a break in the radio guard. 1.8 If practicable another station should be asked to listen out for, and to answer any calls during breaks in the radio guard. Note: Do not confuse the use of the word Guard in the above section, meaning maintaining a listening watch, with the GUARD frequency on IVAO. SPEECH TECHNIQUE 1.9 Correct enunciation of words, spoken at a uniform rate in a voice pitched somewhat higher than normal but preserving the rhythm of ordinary conversation will do much to assist satisfactory reception of mechanically reproduced speech. Microphones at present provided to ATC are directionally functioning and ATC s should therefore speak directly into them. 1.10 To avoid clipped transmissions, particularly where the transmitter is remote from the microphone, it is important to depress the transmit switch fully before speech is commenced and to avoid releasing it before the transmission is completed. Controllers should endeavour to use clear concise sentences and to eradicate such obvious faults as hesitation sounds, verbosity, lowering of voice, blurring of consonants, etc. This will ensure maximum efficiency and prevent irritating repetitions. 1.11 It is correct procedure for controllers to announce identity on all telephone calls: with incoming calls it is the opening remark and with outgoing calls the reply to the recipient s announcement of identity. 1.12 It is just as important that this procedure s not relaxed for direct telephone lines because mistaken identity can occur when another line has inadvertently been left open from a previous call. 1.13 The identity to be used is that of the function relative to the telephone extensions being used. On outside calls the identity should be given in full, for example This is Johannesburg Air Traffic Control but on direct lines, where it will require no further amplification, it may be abbreviated to Johannesburg. v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 1 of 30

LETTERS 1.14 The ICAO word spelling alphabet is given below with the pronunciation in parenthesis for each letter; the syllables requiring emphasis being underlined. This alphabet is to be used at all times when it is required to indicate letters except for particular letter groups which by every-day use have become unmistakable, e.g. VOR, NDB, ILS, QNH, ETA, etc. Letter R/T Pronunciation A ALPHA AL FAH B BRAVO BRAH VOH C CHARLIE CHAR LEE D DELTA DELL TAH E ECHO ECK OH F FOXTROT FOKS TROT G GOLF GOLF H HOTEL HOH TELL I INDIA IN DEE AH J JULIET JEW LEE ET K KILO KEY LOH L LIMA LEE MAH M MIKE MIKE N NOVEMBER NO VEM BER O OSCAR OSS CAH P PAPA PAH PAH Q QUEBEC KEH BECK R ROMEO ROW ME OH S SIERRA SEE AIRRAH T TANGO TANG GO U UNIFORM YOU NEE FORM V VICTOR VIKTAH W WHISKEY WISS KEY X XRAY ECKS RAY Y YANKEE YANG KEY Z ZULU ZOO LOO NUMERALS 1.15 The phonetic representations of figures and associated words are given below. 0 ZE-RO 1 WUN 2 TOO 3 TREE 4 FOWER 5 FIFE 6 SIX 7 SEVEN 8 AIT 9 NINER HUNDRED HUN DRED THOUSAND TOU SAND DECIMAL DAY SEE MAL 1.16 All numbers, except those which are whole hundreds or thousands, are to be spoken by pronouncing each figure separately. Decimals will be indicated where necessary. v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 2 of 30

TIME 1.17 UTC and the 24-hour clock will be used at all times. 1.18 When speaking a time value, normally only the minutes of the hour are required; each figure being pronounced separately. However, if there is any possibility of confusion the full four-figure group will be spoken. E.g. at 45 or at 0845. STANDARD SPEECH ABBREVIATIONS 1.19 The words and phrases shown in the table below are to be used whenever applicable. Phrase ACKNOWLEDGE AFFIRM APPROVED BREAK BREAK BREAK CANCEL CHECK CLEARED CONFIRM CONTACT CORRECT CORRECTION DISREGARD GO AHEAD HOW DO YOU READ I SAY AGAIN MAINTAIN MONITOR NEGATIVE Meaning Let me know that you have received and understood this message. Yes. Permission for proposed action granted. I hereby indicate the separation between portions of the message. (To be used where there is no clear distinction between the text and other portions of the message). I hereby indicate the separation between messages transmitted to different aircraft in a very busy environment. Annul the previously transmitted clearance. Examine a system or procedure. (Not to be used in any other context. No answer is normally expected). Authorised to proceed under the conditions specified. I request verification of: (clearance, instruction, action, information) Establish communications with... "True" or "Accurate" An error has been made in this transmission (or message indicated). The correct version is... Ignore Proceed with your message. Note: Not used whenever the possibility exists of misconstruing "GO AHEAD" as an authorisation for an aircraft to proceed. The phrase "GO AHEAD" may be omitted and, in its place, a response made by using the calling aeronautical station's call sign followed by the answering aeronautical station's call sign. What is the readability of my transmission? I repeat for clarity or emphasis. Continue in accordance with the condition(s) specified or in its literal sense, e.g. Maintain VFR.

CHAPTER 2- CALLSIGNS AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL UNITS 2.1 The RTF callsign of a ground station is normally the place name of that station to which a suffix is added to indicate the appropriate air traffic control service provided: Air Traffic Control Service Suffix Approach Control Radar (Arrivals) Arrival Approach Control Radar (Departures) Departure Precision Approach Radar Precision Clearance Delivery Delivery Apron Control Apron Aeronautical Station Radio Aerodrome Control Tower Ground Movement Control Ground Approach Control Approach Radar (in general) Radar Area Control Area or Control Flight Information Information AIRCRAFT 2.2 Aircraft shall be identified by one of the following types of callsign:- a) The five-letter callsign of a South African registered aircraft spelt out in the word spelling alphabet: E.g. ZS-ABC - ZULU SIERRA ALPHA BRAVO CHARLIE E.g. ZU-DEF ZULU UNIFORM DELTA ECHO FOXTROT Note: South African registrations maybe abbreviated to only the last 3 letters within South African airspace only, and only if there will be NO callsign confusion with another aircraft on the same frequency, e.g. ZS-ABC becomes ALPHA BRAVO CHARLIE and ZU-DEF becomes DELTA ECHO FOXTROT b) A foreign registered aircraft will be spelt out thus: E.g. VPABC - VICTOR PAPA ALPHA BRAVO CHARLIE c) A combination of characters corresponding to the official registration of the aircraft: E.g. N3578 d) The RTF designator of the airline followed by the aircraft registration, E.g. BAW GABCD - SPEEDBIRD GOLF ALPHA BRAVO CHARLIE DELTA. Note: Rarely used e) The RTF designator of the airline followed by flight number e.g. SAA314 - SPRINGBOK TREE WUN FOWER f) SAAF aircraft are issued with Mission numbers. For security reasons they are changed often. This mission number will be supplied by the operations room situated at ATSU s where SAAF units are located. g) The aircraft type followed by the aircraft s registration, e.g. APACHE ZULU SIERRA, CHARLIE MIKE WHISKEY. h) Formation flights; the name of the formation followed by the word leader or formation : E.g. SPADES LEADER or SPADES FORMATION 2.3 After communications have been established some of these call signs may be abbreviated, e.g. some of the above call signs may be abbreviated as follows: a) i) ALPHA BRAVO CHARLIE ii) DELTA ECHO FOXTROT b) VICTOR BRAVO CHARLIE c) N78 d) SPEEDBIRD CHARLIE DELTA e) The airline designator and flight type of callsign SHALL NOT be abbreviated. f) Squadron or group designator type of callsign SHALL NOT be abbreviated. g) APACHE CHARLIE MIKE WHISKEY. h) FORMATION (abbreviated callsign) v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 5 of 30

CHAPTER 3 - COMMUNICATION WITH AIRCRAFT CALLSIGN CONFUSION 3.1 Controllers should be aware that the similarity of some aircraft call signs can cause confusion which could lead to incidents. In many cases strict R/T discipline can alleviate the problem. Call signs which contain three or more common digits are particularly liable to be confused. When there is a likelihood that call signs will be confused, the pilots of the aircraft concerned should be warned, especially when the flight number are identical, e.g. SAA515 and SFR515. 3.2 Callsign abbreviation must not be used when two aircraft on the same frequency have similar registrations e.g. ZS-SSB and VP-SSB. In this situation both aircraft are to be instructed to use full callsign. 3.3 The omission of the company designator when it is an integral part of a callsign can lead to confusion with other numerical and literal information, e.g. levels, headings, reporting point designations, etc. It may also negate the alerting effect on the pilot of hearing his own company designator. Therefore, company designators must always be used when they are part of a callsign. ESTABLISHMENT OF CONTACT 3.4 The initial call made to establish RTF contact should take the following form:- a) The full RTF callsign of the station being called; b) The full RTF callsign of the station calling, e.g. Springbok 302 Cape Town Tower. 3.5 The phrase continue as cleared should not be used when replying to an initial call made by an aircraft which has been transferred from another frequency. READABILITY OF TRANSMISSION 3.6 When the checks are made the following readability scale is to be used to indicate the quality of the transmission. Quality Scale UNREADABLE 1 READABLE NOW AND THEN 2 READABLE BUT WITH DIFFICULTY 3 READABLE 4 PERFECTLY READABLE 5 ACKNOWLEDGE AND READ BACK OF MESSAGES 3.7 As a general principle, all messages should be acknowledged by the use of the aircraft callsign. 3.9 Executive instructions will be acknowledged by an abbreviated read back of the instructions, e.g.:- a) ZS-BCD aircraft landing runway 03, hold position. Reply BCD holding 3.10 A full read back will be made to messages containing any of the following:- a) Level Instructions. b) Heading Instructions. c) Speed Instructions. d) Airways or route clearances. e) Runway-in-use. f) Clearance to enter, land on, take-off on, backtrack or cross an active runway. g) SSR operating instructions. h) Altimeter settings. i) VDF information. j) Frequency changes. v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 6 of 30

k) The controller shall listen to the read-back to ascertain that the clearance or instruction has been correctly acknowledged by the flight crew, and shall take immediate action to correct any discrepancies revealed by the read-back. TRANSFER OF COMMUNICATIONS 3.11 To transfer communication with an aircraft to another unit, controllers shall pass instructions giving:- a) The identity of the unit to be contacted; b) The frequency to be used for contact. 3.13 When the frequency of an aeronautical mobile service station is an intermediate 25 khz the full figure will comprise 6 digits. However, controllers transferring aircraft to these frequencies are to use only the first 4 digits, e.g.:- FREQUENCY SPOKEN 124,700 124,7 119,775 119,775 E.g. 124,700 WUN TOO FOWER DAY-SEE-MAL SEVEN 119,775 WUN WUN NINER DAY-SEE-MAL SEVEN SEVEN FIFE 3.14 If no further communication is received after acknowledgement, satisfactory transfer of communication may be assumed. LOSS OF COMMUNICATION 3.18 Refer to Section 2 Radio Failure. EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION 3.19 Distress and urgency traffic shall comprise all radio-telephone messages relative to the distress and urgency conditions respectively. Distress and urgency conditions are defined as:- a) Distress: a condition of being threatened by serious and/or imminent danger and of requiring immediate assistance. b) Urgency: a condition concerning the safety of an aircraft other vehicle, or of some person on board or within sight, but which does not require immediate assistance. 3.20 The radiotelephony distress signal MAYDAY and the radiotelephony urgency signal PAN shall be used at the commencement of the first distress and urgency communication respectively. If time permits the signal MAYDAY or PAN should be repeated 3 times in the initial call. 3.21 In distress and urgency traffic the radiotelephony distress and urgency signals should be used at the commencement of any subsequent communications so as to indicate to any station which may have just joined the frequency that there is distress or urgency traffic in progress with which they must not interfere. 3.22 Distress and urgency traffic will normally be maintained on the frequency on which such traffic was initiated until it is considered that better assistance can be provided by transferring that traffic to another frequency. 3.23 In case of distress and urgency communications, in general, the transmissions by radiotelephone should be made slowly and distinctly, each word being clearly pronounced to facilitate transcription. DISTRESS COMMUNICATIONS 3.24 The distress call and message should preferably be sent on the air-ground frequency in use at the time. 3.25 The distress call and message shall be preceded by the distress signal Mayday, preferably spoken three times if time permits. 3.26 The distress call may be addressed to a specific aeronautical ground station, normally that station communicating with the aircraft or in whose area of responsibility the aircraft was operating; or it may be broadcast without being addressed to any station. v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 7 of 30

3.27 Whenever possible the distress message should be transmitted in the same transmission as the distress call. 3.28 The foregoing provisions are not intended to prevent:- a) The distress message of an aircraft being made on another aeronautical mobile frequency, if considered necessary or desirable; b) The distress message of an aircraft being broadcast, if time and circumstances make this course preferable; c) The aircraft transmitting on the maritime mobile service radiotelephone calling frequencies; d) The aircraft using any means at its disposal to attract attention and make known its condition; e) Any station taking any means at its disposal to assist an aircraft in distress. Note: The station addressed will normally be that station communicating with the aircraft or in whose area of responsibility the aircraft is operating. ACTION BY GROUND STATION ADDRESSED 3.29 The station addressed by an aircraft in distress or first station to acknowledge the distress message shall:- a) Immediately acknowledge the distress message; b) Take control of the communications, or specifically and clearly transfer that responsibility, advising the aircraft if a transfer is made; c) Take immediate action to ensure that all necessary information is made available, as soon as possible to the appropriate ATSU. d) Warn other stations, as appropriate, in order to prevent the transfer of traffic to the frequency of the distress communication. IMPOSITION OF SILENCE 3.30 The station in distress, or the station in control of distress traffic, shall be permitted to impose silence, either on all stations of the mobile service in the area or on any station which interferes with the distress traffic. It shall address these instructions to all stations, or to one station only, according to circumstances. 3.31 When a ground station imposes silence on a frequency it may transfer aircraft, other than the aircraft in distress, to another frequency in which case the frequency must be stipulated. ACTIONS BY OTHER STATIONS 3.32 The distress communications have absolute priority over all other communications and a station aware of them shall not transmit on the frequency concerned, unless:- a) The distress is cancelled or the distress traffic is terminated; b) All distress traffic has been transferred to other frequencies; c) The station controlling communications gives permission: d) It has itself to render assistance. 3.33 Any station which has knowledge of distress traffic and which cannot itself assist the station in distress shall nevertheless continue listening to such traffic until it is evident that assistance is being provided. URGENCY COMMUNICATIONS 3.34 The urgency call and message should preferably be sent on the air-ground frequency in use at the time. 3.35 The urgency call and message should be preceded by the urgency signal Pan, preferably spoken three times. 3.36 The urgency call should normally be addressed to a specific station. 3.37 Whenever possible the urgency message should be transmitted in the same transmission as the urgency call. v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 8 of 30

ACTION BY GROUND STATION ADDRESSED 3.38 The station addressed by an aircraft reporting an urgency condition, or first station acknowledging the urgency message, shall:- a) Acknowledge the urgency message; b) Take immediate action to ensure that all necessary information is made available, as soon as possible to:- i) The appropriate air traffic services unit; ii) The aircraft operating agency concerned. Note: The requirement to inform the aircraft operating agency does not have priority over any other action which involves the safety of the aircraft or any other aircraft in the area or which might affect the progress of expected flights in the area. c) If necessary, exercise control of communications. PRIORITY OF URGENCY COMMUNICATIONS 3.39 The urgency communications have priority over all other communications, except distress, and all stations shall take care not to interfere with the transmission of urgency traffic. v1.2 - Copyright IVAO South Africa by Martin Smit Page 9 of 30
