Closed-Loop Communication

  • B.Nods silently and assumes the sender saw it
  • C.Writes the message down for the post-flight debrief only
Correct answer

A. Repeats or confirms the message back so the sender knows it was received and understood correctly

Why

Repeating key information back closes the loop and exposes misunderstandings immediately. It is especially valuable for altitudes, headings, and abort calls that must be acted on exactly.
