📜  ATIS Training Series – Learn Step by Step

This article is part of our ATIS Training Series. In each post, you will:

  • listen to a real ATIS message,
  • read the full transcription,
  • decode the information (weather, runway, approach, warnings),
  • and practice with an exam-style question.

💡 On the ICAO English exam, one of the tasks is to listen to an ATIS recording and choose the correct answer from 3 options.

👉 Remember: you can always ask the examiner to play the ATIS one more time. This is allowed and will not affect your score.

🎧 Watch & Listen on YouTube

We prepared a short video with this exact ATIS message from EHGG (Groningen Airport Eelde).
👉 Watch the ATIS on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ucnSbEC_MuI
OR
🔊 Play the video on our website, listen carefully, and repeat the message out loud – just like in the real exam.

✅  What is ATIS?

ATIS means Automatic Terminal Information Service.

It is a recording at airports. It tells pilots about:
– the weather,
– the runway in use,
– special information.

Pilots must listen to ATIS before they call the tower. This makes communication faster and safer.

🧭  ATIS Example – EHGG (Groningen Airport Eelde)

This is a real ATIS message. It was recorded at 17:55 UTC at Groningen Airport Eelde, Netherlands.

ATIS Transcription:

✈️ Decode the ATIS

– Time: 17:55 UTC
– Runway: 23 (main landing runway)
– Transition level: FL45 (Flight Level 45)
– Wind: 140° at 3 knots (light wind)
– Visibility: 10 km or more (excellent visibility)
– Clouds: scattered at 4400 ft
– Temperature / Dew point: 6°C / 2°C
– QNH: 1013 hPa
– Weather trend: NOSIG (no significant changes expected)
– Operations: Tower and Approach combined

✈️ Why is this important?

This ATIS is interesting because:

  1. Calm conditions – variable or light winds, good visibility, few clouds.
  2. Tower and Approach combined – typical for smaller regional airports.
  3. Transition level given – pilots must know when to switch from QNH to standard pressure.

✈️ Practice Question (Exam Style)

You listen to the ATIS. The question is:
Which runway is in use at EHGG?

A) Runway 05
B) Runway 18
C) Runway 23

✅ Correct answer: C) Runway 23

Exam Tip

During the ICAO English exam, you will listen to an ATIS message and answer a question
with 3 choices.
👉 Remember: you can always ask the examiner:
“Could you please play the recording again?”
This is allowed and does not lower your score.

📱 Bonus for Smart Students

If you want more practice, try the ICAO4U mobile app.
It includes many recordings just like the ones you will hear on the exam – ATIS, clearances,
and real pilot–ATC communication.

😏 Think of it as a legal cheat sheet for your exam – everything you need to feel confident,
but 100% allowed!
