Experience 047. Glossary of Aviation Terminology. Alfa to Juliett. The Seat 1A Podcast.

In this experience it's study time with Vinod and Geoff. So sharpen your pencils as we start with the first of two experiences with aviation terminology. In this experience we're covering Alfa to Juliett. When you fly or read about aviation, often you hear or see terminology used by pilots, airline staff or you may hear about in the media. We have chosen various terms that we hope will assist you in understanding what's going on, and to allow you to communicate with Seat 1A savvy. Don't worry there is no quiz at the end, so sit back and enjoy.
