Abstract

Based on International Civil Aviation Organization Language Proficiency Requirements (ICAO LPRs) the study investigates the implementation of Chinese pilots’ aviation English training which replaced PEPEC examination in some airlines. It also reported the evaluation status of some student pilots in an aviation college. The results show that the effects of teaching and training pilots’ English language proficiency based on ICAO LPRs vary. The study suggests that it is advisable to further improve the understanding of the necessity of implementing the ICAO LPRs.
