The ICAO Manual of Radiotelephony has been chosen in preference to the recommendations in
the PANS-RAC, as the presentation of short dialogues in the Manual is considerably easier to
place in the context of its correct phase of flight than the original recommendations. However, it
has occasionally been necessary to return to the source, as it were, for example in the Route
Clearances Section. In this case the document referred to is:
International Civil Aviation Organisation, Procedures for Air Navigation, Rules of -the Air
and Air Traffic Control, 4444.[hide]
