Platform and application to prepare the ICAO English test of the DGAC

The ICAO English proficiency rating for international radiotelephony is mandatory for IR (Instrument Flight Rules) rated pilots and for VFR pilots who wish to leave French airspace. ICAO level 4 is required to validate this rating on the pilot licence. However, more and more airlines are asking for ICAO level 5 or even ICAO level 6 in English. FCL ANGLAIS offers aviation English courses, face to face online training to prepare for the DGAC ICAO FCL .055 English exam in particular, blended learning services with: Aviation English Now aviationenglishnow.com ICAL icalearning.com/#/en HUH • Video The DGAC FCL .055 English exam is deemed to be difficult because the simulated flight test is particularly challenging due to the requirement to read back the entirety of the air traffic controller's messages and even other radio stations. The test of unusual situation message is also difficult because it consists in passing an emergency message (or thus of unusual situation) according to a message written in French which takes the length of a paragraph! Finally, the listening test is considered to be among the most challenging. However, airlines are aware of this and know how to relativise an ICAO level from the DGAC examination centres, and it is quite a good feature on a pilot's CV if you have passed this test.
