Aviation English, built by a rater

ICAO English was created by Uri Oram — a flight instructor and certified ICAO Aviation English exam rater — to give pilots and air traffic controllers a focused, realistic way to prepare for the ICAO language proficiency requirements (Annex 1, Operational Level 4 and above).

Real radiotelephony

Every scenario is built from authentic ATC–pilot exchanges — runway changes, go-arounds, traffic calls and urgency situations — the contexts raters actually assess.

Exam-aligned questions

Ten questions per scenario target phraseology, readback requirements and standard word meanings, each referenced to ICAO Doc 4444 or FAA JO 7110.65.

Learn from every mistake

A wrong answer immediately reveals the correct option and the reasoning behind it, so every run sharpens your operational English.

Built by a rater

Content is written by Uri Oram, a flight instructor and certified ICAO English exam rater — so you practice the way you will be assessed.

Why it matters

Language proficiency is a licensing requirement, not a formality. Misunderstood clearances, missed readbacks and imprecise phraseology are contributing factors in real incidents and in failed exams. Practicing against transcripts of genuine radiotelephony exchanges trains your ear for the pace, structure and standard phraseology of the operational environment — and each scenario's citations of ICAO Doc 4444 and FAA JO 7110.65 connect every question to the source standard.

Uri Oram developed this app after years of rating pilot and controller English exams. The scenarios mirror the situations that most often trip candidates up — and the explanations tell you exactly what a rater is listening for.
