%X Episodes of VHF radio-mediated pilot-controller spoken communication in which multiple tasks are conducted are engendered in and through the skilful deployment and combination, by the parties to the talk, of multiple orders of discourse segmentation. These orders of segmentation are manifest at the levels of transmission design and sequential organisation. Both of these features are analysed from a Conversation Analytic standpoint in order to track their segment by segment genesis, development and completion. From the analysis it emerges that in addition to the serial type of sequential organisations described by Schegloff (1986), there exists an alternative form of organisation that enables tasks to be managed in a quasi-parallel manner, and which affords controllers and pilots a number of practical advantages in the conduct of their radio-mediated service encounters. Cet article pr¨¦sente des extraits d¡¯¨¦changes oraux entre pilots et contr leurs du ciel via la radio VHF. On peut y voir comment le d¨¦ploiement et la combinaison habile de plusieurs ordres de segmentation discursive, engageant les deux co¨¦nonciateurs de la conversation, leur permet d¡¯accomplir des taches multiples. Ces ordres de segmentation se manifestent aux niveaux du plan de la transmission et de l¡¯organisation s¨¦quentielle. Ces deux niveaux sont envisag¨¦es du point de vue de l¡¯analyse conversationnelle dans le but d¡¯examiner, segment apr¨¨s segment, comment ils se mettent en place, se d¨¦veloppent puis prennent fin. Notre ¨¦tude montre que, outre le type s¨¦riel d¡¯organisations s¨¦quentielles d¨¦crit par Schegloff (1986), il existe une forme alternative d¡¯organisation qui permet de g¨¦rer les taches de mani¨¨re quasi parall¨¨le, et qui fournit aux contr leurs a¨¦riens ainsi qu¡¯aux pilotes de nombreux avantages pratiques dans la conduite de leurs radio.
