TOPIC:  Parts of an Aircraft GOAL:  To learn the major parts of an aircraft by location and function Level:  Easy 1. Read about the various major parts of an airplane, then proceed to Step 2 Although there are many aircraft designs flying today, most of them share a common assembly of major parts that all pilots should be thoroughly aware of. Ever since the early days of aviation, an aviator’s primary training included the fundamental knowledge of what each part is called, its function and where it is located. Each major part of a fixed-wing aircraft serves an important purpose. For example, the propeller helps move the aircraft through the air via thrust. The wings are lifting bodies which help keep the aircraft airborne. The horizontal and vertical stabilizers contain vital control surfaces; and the fuselage is a major structural component containing crew and passenger areas. The importance of knowing each part is reinforced when you undergo flight t...

Aim Practice English skills in an aviation context Improve vocabulary while learning stress management tips (difficult) Have fun! By now everyone has heard or read about the flight attendant who made his own emergency exit upon landing, when a bad day at work became too much. Link to article Raging flight attendant makes his own emergency exit Interestingly, although the flight attendant was arrested and charged, it seems he has become something of a folk hero.  Workplace stress is something we can all relate to and the majority of people are reacting with compassion and understanding.  Comments on social networking sites and news blogs speak of the particular workplace stresses that flight attendants face along with the increasingly challenging behaviour of passengers. Another article that follows suggests that a public image at odds with the actual role of cabin crew is partly to blame for stress levels among flight attendants. Link to article Sky Stress...

Aim Practice English skills in an aviation context Discuss cross-cultural communication Have fun! A flight attendant will become familiar with a great number of countries and cultures over the course of her/his career, but the significance of this is more than just the interest value of visiting diverse geographical locations, witnessing different customs or meeting new people; for a flight attendant working with the public from all walks of life and from all over the world, having an understanding of cross-cultural communication is an essential part of the job. Successful communication is important for reasons of both safety and service standards but there are more factors to consider than just getting the language right. Cultural differences may sometimes means the message is not received the way it is intended. Reasons for this include: Communication styles differ between different cultures A direct translation of a word might have a different meaning What is good m...
