ICAO phraseology trainer

Why

Before starting to fly online - for instance on VATSIM or IVAO I was a bit frightened about the phraseology and when to say what.

As I had the chance to do a really brilliant course provided within the german flight simulator club FSC e.V. I really learnt a lot about aeronautical radio transmittions and how to prepare for what's going to happen.

The desire to be better prepared led to my wish to practice the transmittions more often without the pressure doing it directly online.

So i built up a small web component that is really easy to use and turns written transmitions via Text-To-Speech into something that I could listen to.

How does it look like?
