WILCO in Morse Code
WILCO is a five-letter spelling of a voice acknowledgement. The FAA glossary uses it to indicate that the message was received and understood and that the instruction will be followed. It is more specific than simple receipt.

WILCO - Character-by-Character Breakdown
What to check in WILCO
W is dot-dash-dash. L is dot-dash-dot-dot. Keep the I group between W and L; two small dots are a complete letter here rather than extra marks attached to its neighbors.
.--I..L.-..C-.-.O---Compare a related message: WILCO
Encode the exact wording below and compare it with WILCO. Adding letters or words changes the signal; a word gap is longer than a letter gap. The slash in the displayed result marks that word gap and is not an extra transmitted mark.
.-- .. .-.. -.-. ---Verify your finished pattern
Read each labelled character group in order, then decode the complete copied pattern. Check that it returns WILCO, including any word spaces. In a physical layout, decorative spacers should be distinct from signal marks. The diagram illustrates grouping; it does not specify bead sizes or guarantee how a printed or permanent design will reproduce.
Keep each letter’s marks together, put a space between letters, and use / between words. Check the writing guide for accepted input and the timing reference for playback.
