Summary/Abstract: The paper highlights the vital role the English language plays in the aviation industry. Its purpose is to explain the connection between the military specialities and branches that can be chosen by the students who pursue a career in aviation, and the ability to speak, write and understand English. The correlation between these two aspects is further sustained by the analysis of the all-time deadliest air disaster – Tenerife, whose major contributing factor was the communication error based on the English language.
