The aviation industry expects over two million new personnel in the next twenty years to ensure safe commercial travel and support long-term growth. However, the industry needs more diversity. This study gathered information from administrators and educators in a large, diverse urban school district to address this issue through questionnaires and…

Flight training is a lengthy and resource-intensive process with additional learning, and teaching techniques are often overlooked. One technique is observational learning, or backseating in aviation training, which can accelerate pilot training. This study aimed to analyze the factors that facilitate and hinder the implementation of backseating…

The study aimed to develop a teaching module based on conversation analysis in order to promote aviation students' interactional and intercultural competence. Firstly, the needs analysis was conducted to investigate the communication problems and English skills in terms of interactional and intercultural competence needed in the aviation industry…
