ABSTRACT

The use of non-standard radiotelephony communication phraseology is a major barrier to effective communication between pilots and air traffic controllers, and is one of the contributing factors of air-ground miscommunications. Therefore, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and many national civil aviation authorities have established radiotelephony communication phraseology standards to improve the safety of aviation communication. However, with the development of civil aviation, some problems were revealed in the application of the standard radiotelephony communication phraseology in flight operation. This paper compares and analyses the domestic and international standards of radiotelephony communication phraseology, and provides implications on how to optimize the radiotelephony communication phraseology standards to enhance the efficiency of air-ground communication by taking into account the changes in the radiotelephony communications.
