ATC: ‘Fastair 54, runway 26, cleared for take-off’. What is the response from the pilot?
Refer to figure.
With all these read back questions, a good approach for both the flight deck and the exam room is to:
- Read back the required information in exactly the same order that it was given
- Put your call sign at the end
Looking at the answer options:
Cleared for take-off, Fastair 54 --> INCORRECT. Missing the runway designator.
Runway 26, cleared for take-off, Fastair 54 --> CORRECT. You must always read back the runway designator.
Wilco, Fastair 54 --> INCORRECT. Incorrect read back for the clearance to take-off and also missing the runway designator.
Runway 26, cleared for take-off --> INCORRECT. Missing the aircraft's callsign.
