Book excerpt: In particular, the analysis of the natural data (Ch. 2 & 3) and of the experimental data (Ch. 4) shows that the inclusion of more than three aviation topics in a single message leads to a substantial increase in misunderstandings. Besides providing a better understanding of aviation English and of the cognitive processes underlying the comprehension of ATC instructions, this study then offers a very clear recommendation for ATC procedures: to minimize misunderstandings due to message length, air traffic controllers should limit their messages to no more than three aviation topics.
