another crashed caused by poor English

ValuJet Flight 592 crashed in the Florida Everglades in 1996, killing all 110 on board. The cause was the mistake of loading oxygen canisters as cargo. The investigation revealed that the canisters labeled as "repairable" had been misunderstood as "empty", and at one point the National Transportation Safety
Board suggested that the use of non-English speaking mechanics may have been a problem.<ref>William Langewiesche, "The Lessons of ValuJet 592," 281 Atlantic Monthly No. 3, 81 (Mar. 1998).</ref>
