Ace Your 107

A Cessna 172 registered as N123AB would typically be identified over the radio as —

Why: The FAA study guide states: "N123AB... would be pronounced in aviation terms by use of the phonetic alphabet as, 'November One-Two-Three-Alpha-Bravo.' In most cases, 'November' will be replaced with either the aircraft manufacturer's name... In this case, if N123AB is a Cessna 172, the call sign would be 'Cessna, One-Two-Three-Alpha-Bravo.'"

  • Overgeneralizes: "November" is the base phonetic prefix for an "N" registration, but the guide's own example replaces it with the manufacturer's name for a light GA aircraft like the Cessna 172.
  • Misstates radio phraseology; the registration is spoken digit-by-digit and letter-by-letter using the phonetic alphabet, not as a single spoken word.
