ATC radio training — VFR & IFR
Talk to the tower
like you've done it a thousand times.
Pista trains your ear and your mic technique with real ATC phraseology, scenario drills, and instant feedback — built for student pilots learning to sound calm on frequency.

Your route
Two programs. One frequency.
Every lesson is built around what you'll actually hear on the radio — not textbook grammar.
PGM–101PROGRAM
VFR Communications
GROUND → TOWER → DEPARTURE → ENROUTE → APPROACH
Foundations through pattern work — clearances, readbacks, and the calls you'll make on every VFR flight.
PGM–201PROGRAM
Advanced & Certification
IFR BASICS → IFR ARRIVAL → EMERGENCY COMMS → ICAO PREP
IFR procedural depth and ICAO Language Proficiency exam prep for pilots moving beyond VFR.
DRILL–000FEATURE
Real ATC audio drills
LISTEN → TRANSCRIBE → READ BACK
Train on live-recorded tower audio, cleaned up and slowed down until your ear catches up to real traffic.
On frequency
How it sounds
Three passes, every lesson.

Hear the real call
Actual phraseology and cadence, not a textbook voice — including the static.
02 · READ BACK
Key the mic
Speak your readback. Pista listens for the phrasing that actually matters.
03 · GET CORRECTED
Fix it before you fly
Instant, specific feedback — so the mistake doesn't happen on a live frequency.
