To stimulate discussion and evidence gathering, this thematic review examines ELF within the framework of communities of practice, highlighting key components of the …

Interrogating the construct of aviation English
This paper explores the underlying construct of both the English proficiency test for pilot and air traffic controller radiotelephony communication developed and administered in Korea and the ICAO language proficiency testing policy on which the test in Korea is based. It does so by canvassing the opinions of Korean airline pilots and air traffic controllers through 400 questionnaire and 22 interview sources. Results reveal a lack of fit between …
