Requirements

Anyone can study to receive a Flight Radio Telephony Operators (FRTOL) Licence. The minimum age is 14 years old. Stand-alone licences (those that are not attached to a flying licence) last for period of 10 years before revalidation is required.

You will need to study for, and pass a total of two official exams. The associated courses for these two exams are:

• Communications (Radio Telephony) Theoretical Knowledge
• RT Practical Examination Preparation
• Ground Radio Operator Courses

Alternatively, you can see our whole range of RT courses here.

The pass mark for each exam is 75%. This is also the pass mark for our own on-line exams associated with these courses.
