Radiotelephony training for EASA and UK flight instructors and schools. CAP 413 and FRTOL.

Your students go quiet on the radio. We fix that between lessons.

Voice RT practice with an AI controller, so the calls are automatic before the skills test.

For flight instructors

The call that's automatic on the ground goes quiet on frequency.

Trained to one script.

Drill the local circuit, then meet an unfamiliar aerodrome on the day. The examiner picks the route.

The reps are not there.

A training flight gives a handful of live calls. Automaticity takes hundreds. The 45-hour syllabus cannot deliver them.

The habit outlives the licence.

Approximate readbacks learned at PPL level do not reset later. They compound. Instructors are the first link in that chain.

44% of pilots meet non-standard phraseology every flight
52% of controllers hear it at least daily

IATA phraseology study · 2,070 airline pilots (2011)

These habits start at PPL level. You do the judgement; the AI does the repetition.

Why students fail

Three service types. Three different sets of obligations.

Confuse the three CAP 413 station types and a student waits for a clearance that never comes, or treats information as one. BeWinged drills all three.

ATC.

The controller issues binding clearances that require full readback. The word "cleared" for take-off or landing belongs to ATC alone.

AFIS.

The FISO gives instructions to the holding point and after the landing roll, but on the runway issues information only. "Take-off at your discretion" is not a clearance. The pilot states the decision.

AGCS.

The operator cannot issue any instruction or clearance. Taxiing, parking and the landing decision are the pilot's.

Three steps. As many sessions as it takes.

Step 1

Pick the scenario.

Set the aerodrome, weather, traffic, service type and flight phase. The instructor or the student picks the conditions.

Step 2

Press transmit and talk.

Speak into the headset. The AI answers in spoken English with ICAO and CAP 413 phraseology, as tower, approach, ground or AFIS. A live conversation, not a quiz.

Step 3

Get instant feedback.

See what was right, what was off and what to say next time. Every session is scored and saved to replay.

What you'll actually use.

AI Tower Session

A live, voice-based conversation with an AI controller.

The AI plays tower, approach, ground or AFIS in ICAO and CAP 413 phraseology, corrects the student in the moment, and runs the mandatory emergency scenario.

Who it is for.

Flight instructors

Less briefing time on phraseology. More on flying.

Students drill the standard calls before they fly with you, so you stop giving the same correction for the fifth time. Instructor tools are in development, shaped by the beta.

ATOs and DTOs

One RT standard across the whole school.

One phraseology standard for every student and instructor, with documented between-lesson practice that adds to the training record without eating into dual hours. We scope it to your cohort.

Beta

We are in beta, and we need instructors to tell us where we are wrong.

BeWinged is live and in beta. We are testing with a UK DTO and recruiting a few ATOs and DTOs as design partners, not free-trial users. You bring the teaching judgement; we bring the repetition engine and the willingness to change it. Run one cohort, tell us what the AI gets wrong, and we scope a quote from real usage.

Why BeWinged exists.

I am a PPL student at an ATO. Nothing prepares you for keying the mic with a controller waiting, so I am building the trainer I needed and testing it with the people who teach this every week. I know what was missing as a learner; you know how to fix it as an instructor. That is the whole point.

See you on frequency,

Jan Hobler Founder, BeWinged

Frequently asked questions

Is BeWinged a certified means of compliance?

No. BeWinged is a training aid. It drills radiotelephony so the calls are automatic before the test. Your ATO or DTO retains responsibility for formal RT instruction, assessment and compliance.

Does it cover UK CAP 413 and FRTOL preparation?

Yes. Phraseology is built on ICAO and SERA, and UK operations are drilled against CAP 413. FRTOL practical-test preparation is a core use case: unfamiliar aerodromes, all three service types, amended clearances and the mandatory emergency scenario.

Does it help with FCL.055 and ICAO English Level 4?

Yes. Speaking and listening with an AI controller builds the phraseology and the plain English that FCL.055 language proficiency checks assess. It is practice for the check, not the check itself.

What does it cost?

We quote per school after a short conversation. Usage varies by cohort size and syllabus stage, so we scope your active minutes and send an offer rather than publish a number that would be wrong for you.

How do schools join the beta?

Book a demo or join the beta programme. We run one cohort with you, you tell us what the AI gets wrong, and we scope a quote around your cohort.

Does it replace instructor time?

No. It replaces the part of a lesson spent re-explaining a call the student had no chance to practise. It does not replace coached flight time, debrief or examiner-led test preparation. The AI does repetition. The instructor does judgement.
