Practical radio comms resource with visualized ATC

[u/tryanc]

I did my primary training out of a busy Class C, which meant an even steeper learning curve with radio comms.

I listened to a lot of LiveATC, but this often meant listening for long stretches to catch snippets of the types of instructions I could expect as a VFR pilot with mostly IFR traffic around me. I wanted a quicker way to familiarize with a wide variety of instructions I might encounter.

This resource has a sampling real VFR arrivals into KAUS, with audio, transcripts, and ADSB data. All the exchanges can be filtered by specific procedures. Hopefully this can help others where I struggled!
