Even for native speakers understanding and comunicating with ATC is a challenge. Captain Speaking enters the game.
Each exercise is a small chunk of ATC communication, taken from a random station with live subtitles, that improves comprehension and vocabulary building. Your ear will swiftly be trained to recognize communication patterns.
Another important skill for pilots is the ability to comprehend and memorize important information, such as radio frequencies, altitudes, QNH settings, weather information, vector instructions, and more. Subtitles typically do not contain this type of information, so your goal is to retrieve it and answer the questions provided by the app. While this can be challenging, it is also a very effective way to learn and develop these crucial skills.
Aviation is an international collaboration area where you will encounter dozens of nations and their accents. As a part of professionalism and confidence, it is important to be able to understand all of them for safe flight. Moreover, the quality of radio communication can vary depending on the territory, weather, and technical issues. Our app provides exercises with many possible combinations and options to prepare you for real-life challenges.
Today, we're introducing a new feature for the Captain Speaking iOS application. Captain's Radio will allow you to listen to Air Traffic Controllers (ATCs). The communication data has been specially prepared for efficient listening, eliminating any silence to save you time. You can practice listening and understanding different accents in various locations. Additionally, the feature works seamlessly in the background. Have a great training session!
The MVP of the Captain Speaking App has been released on the Apple App Store. Version 1.0.4 is now available for public testing and feedback collection.
