Abstract
Anna P. Borowska’s English for Aeronautical Communication is a definitive, safety-focused textbook tailored for aviation professionals (pilots, air traffic controllers) and trainees, centered on mastering radiotelephony communication compliant with global aviation standards. Following a logical “foundations, practice, contextual enhancement” framework, the book is divided into three integrated parts: Part I establishes regulatory (ICAO/EASA/FAA), linguistic, and technical fundamentals; Part II delivers scenario-based communication skills across the full flight lifecycle from ground operations and takeoff to emergencies with standardized dialogues and real accident analyses; Part III addresses non-linguistic critical factors, including situational awareness, cross-cultural interaction, and native-non-native communication dynamics. By integrating authentic audio materials, interactive exercises, and actionable templates, the book seamlessly bridges theoretical knowledge and real-world application, equipping readers to meet professional certification requirements and ensure safe, efficient aeronautical communication.
