After they correctly mark what happened on the
diagram, you could ask how
this incident could have
been avoided. Students may choose to criticize the
controller, the pilot or both. In
this particular listening
it seems that lighting and runway markings were not
up
to the required standard, so students may also talk
about the responsibility of the airport authorities. If
they seem particularly interested
in the deficiencies in
communication, you might direct them to the listening
script for further analysis and discussion.
Vocabulary – Verbs describing actions
and position
Note that
push back is the first movement
an aircraft usually
makes after starting engines. We can say colloquially that the
aircraft or pilot pushes back or that
the aircraft is pushed back
(by a tug or truck). The latter is more technically correct as this
is what actually happens (most aircraft
cannot reverse under
their own power).
Roll for take off means that the aircraft
is accelerating down
the runway to generate enough speed to take off safely.
