註釋

&Quot;For more than fifteen years, the Air Band Radio Handbook has been acknowledged as the essential reference for both ground-based air band listeners and flyers. It is now available again in this fully updated edition, including the latest developments as well as air band evolution.". "Prior to 1963 enthusiasts had to rely on their own eyesight, aided by binoculars, to identify aircraft. In that year, the first VHF radios appeared, allowing messages between pilots and ground controllers to be overheard by anyone who cared to buy one. Modern technology has improved those early sets beyond recognition, but the jargon can still be almost incomprehensible. In this accessible and detailed handbook, the intricacies of air traffic control are explained, enabling the reader to locate and interpret what is actually going on in the airways overhead.". "Air traffic controller David J. Smith investigates the most recent developments at London's airports, emergency situations with aircraft, and air band radios. Also included are major updates to the extensive appendix listings of airways, frequencies and callsigns, to make this an indispensable guide for every air band enthusiast."--BOOK JACKET.
