Detailed and fits in pocket.
I am a begginer at use of scanner to listen to radio traffic, and so review is written from this start point. A smashing little book that fits quite easily into my shirt pocket. July 2015 19th edition.7 chapters,.1. Airfields listed alphabetically with frequencies and airport code. No address, post code etc or other airfield information. This is a pocket guide.2. Frequencies listed numerically with coresponding tower. approach. ground etc.3.4 letter airfield code listed alphabetically. There are a few 'local' European ones there as well, Caen, Calais, Dutch, Normandy and Brittany for example.4. Radio call signs of most if not all the common airlines.5. 3 letter flight prefix of airlines6. 2 letter flight prefix of airlines.7. Abbreviations, phonetic alphabet and morse code.There's a lot there in a small book, but it is all I need. All the basic information is there foer you to tune in and listen. The print is small but clear black print on a sharp white background, I suppose this will get grubby with use. The covers are not laminated, but stiff card, easy enough to putplastic cover on yourself if needed.This is a first impression and first use review, if there are any big grumbbles etc I will update after for sustained use.

Small compact, ring binder book which allows pages to open flat which are full of information.
Great size easy fit for pocket. Ring binder allows pages to be opened flat making it easy to read. Full of information about frequencies and call signs used at each airport including what the frequency is used for within the airport. Book fits in your hand easy to hold read and carry. But most of all is the information about what frequency are being used for ie approach, tower, radar, information. List of all airports with the frequencies being used on that site. Very easy to use.

Needs input from users. Just found out, All Nippon Airways is, in fact, Japan's largest airline, Japan Airlines is second.
Its OK, I haven't used it much. What I quickly found out that it doesn't include Daventry BNN for LHR eastbound 119.725. This is very active where I live in north London. Also the airline list does not include All Nippon Airways which is Japan's second largest international airline. I noticed this omission because I frequently use this airline. For your information, the 2-letter code is NH. I don't what the official callsign is but when they go overhead from Heathrow, the call "Nippon 212 heavy"Using it a bit more, there seem to be a number of omissions - just listening in to Heathrow traffic. I suggest users should get together with the publisher and get a bigger and more informative list - in exchange for free updated books
