L1 - Read back

25-11-2005

For a pilot, a read back consists of repeating the message or a part of the message issued by a controller. This enables the controller to check if the pilot really understood what he/she said.

All clearances must be read back, particularly the followings items :

- altimeter setting

- altitude or flight level

- heading

- frequency

- squawk code

- any item concerning the runway

In short, pilots, remember that all alphanumeric items issued by a controller must be read back.

If the read back is wrong, the controller will say NEGATIVE and will repeat the element(s); the pilot has to read them back again.
