Errata
Corrections, source citations, and known drift points for ATC Phraseology for Simulation Pilots — A Reference for Online Flying. This page is the public log of factual corrections to the book.
Current status
No errata are confirmed at this time. The first printing shipped in May 2026; readers who find errors are invited to submit them using the procedure below.
Confirmed errata are folded into subsequent printings. This page documents what changed, when, and what the source for the correction was. It also notes any open items the author is aware of but has not yet been able to verify or correct.
How to submit a correction
Submissions are welcome from any reader. The most useful submissions include all of the following:
- The page number where the claim appears in the book.
- The claim as printed.
- The corrected information.
- A primary source for the correction — a section or paragraph reference in the FAA AIM, CAP 413, SERA, the Transport Canada AIM, or another authoritative source. Submissions without a source are still read, but cannot be confirmed without one.
Send corrections to errata@mjverity.com. Submissions reach the author directly.
Two areas that drift fastest
Two areas of the book are more likely to need correction than the rest, and are called out here so readers know where to look most carefully.
Part 7 — online network context
VATSIM and IVAO conventions evolve faster than print revision cycles can track. The controller rating syllabi, ATIS retrieval methods, CPDLC infrastructure, and pilot-client landscape are particular drift points. Corrections from active network controllers and network staff are especially welcome.
UK transition altitude
The UK Future Airspace Strategy is harmonising the transition altitude across UK airspace. Aerodromes are moving on different timelines. The current transition altitude for any given aerodrome is the one to brief from the current chart, not from this book.
What this page is not
The errata page is not a discussion forum. It is a public log of factual corrections to the book, with sources. Readers looking for ongoing simulator-aviation discussion will find better venues at the AVSIM forums, the r/flightsim community, and the VATSIM and IVAO community channels.
