Aviation English - A Lexical Analysis

It is generally known that aviation communication is a rich area of study for language investigators. Having such a critical importance, it would be interesting to discover how aviation English is shaped lexically to be compatible with the special nature of controllers' and pilots' work. The ultimate purpose of the current study is to investigate the language of aviation English and to examine its linguistic properties in order to construct a lexical linguistic profile of aviation English in ground-to-air communication between controllers and pilots.
