Text
Remind pilots and operators of the correct meaning of the "Urgency" and "Distress" messages. The correct use of pro-words together with information about what actions will be taken by ATS on receipt of distress or emergency messages should be covered. The fact that a message can be easily cancelled, if the situation of the aircraft improves, should also be emphasised.
