About Our Radio Telephony Restricted (Aeronautical) — R.T.R. (A) Course
Issued by the Wireless Planning & Coordination (WPC) Wing, Ministry of Communications, the Radio Telephony Restricted (Aeronautical) — R.T.R. (A) license is a mandatory requirement for every commercial pilot to operate aircraft radio transmission equipment. Because the exam tests split-second spoken fluency and technical composure before a live panel, structured practical training is essential.
At Flight Path Mentors, we recreate the exact WPC examination room environment with dedicated push-to-talk (PTT) headset consoles, real-time ATC sector simulations, and intensive Part 2 oral viva panels.
Course Overview: Mastering Part I & Part II
- Part I — Practical Transmission Test (25 Minutes):
- Master standard ICAO phraseology for pushback, start-up, taxi, departure, climb, en-route position reporting, and approach clearances.
- Handle complex inflight scenarios including weather deviations, airspace re-routing, VMC/IMC transitions, and holding clearances.
- Execute flawless emergency and urgency transmissions: MAYDAY distress calls (engine fire, depressurization, ditching), PAN-PAN urgency calls, and Radio Communication Failure (Squawk 7600) procedures.
- Part II — Oral Viva Voce (Regulations & Radio Theory):
- Comprehensive training on radio wave propagation (Ground Wave, Sky Wave, Space Wave), ionosphere layers, and skip distance.
- Aviation frequency spectrum (VLF, LF, MF, HF, VHF, UHF, SHF, EHF), SELCAL, ELT (`121.5 MHz` / `406 MHz`), and radar principles.
- ITU Radio Regulations, Indian Telegraph Act, call-sign structures, and phonetic/numerical pronunciation standards.
Course Highlights & Duration
- Daily Live RT Practice Logs: Solve 40+ full-length WPC past transmission question papers under strict 25-minute exam timers.
- 1-on-1 Mock Viva Panels: Daily oral viva simulations covering technical navigation, meteorology, and radio principles.
- Flexible Duration: 4 to 6 Weeks Intensive (Offline in Mumbai & Live Online), aligned directly with all upcoming WPC examination schedules.
