The pilot turns on his radio and calls “mayday, mayday, mayday” to tell that his plane is in danger of crashing to the ground. Mayday is an emergency code word. It is used around the world in voice munications.Frederick Stanley Mockford created the mayday call signal in the 1920s. Mockford was a radio officer at Croydon Airport In London. He was asked to think of a word that could be used in an emergency. The word had to be easily understood by all pilots and airport workers. Since much of the traffic at the time was between Croydon and Le Bourget Airport in Paris, he proposed (提議) the word “mayday” from the French word “m’aider”. The phrase “Venez m’aider” means “(you) e to help me”.Today, it is used to signal a lifethreatening emergency by many groups, such as police forces, pilots, firefighters, and transportation organizations. The call is always given three times in a row to prevent mistaking it for some similarsounding phrase under noisy conditions.The remended mayday call includes the word mayday spoken three times, followed by the helpseeking object’s name, also spoken three times, then mayday and the name again. Key information, including the position, nature of the emergency, assistance required and the number of people involved, should follow. A typical message might be:MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY, this is Nonsuch, Nonsuch, Nonsuch. MAYDAY, Nonsuch. Position 54 degrees 25 minutes North, 016 degrees 33 minutes West. The boat is on fire and sinking. We require immediate assistance. 4 people on board are taking a lifeboat. OVER.Making a false mayday call is a criminal act in many countries because of the danger to the rescuers’ lives that a searchandrescue operation can create, as well as the very high costs of such rescue efforts. For example, making a false emergency call in the US is a crime, which can lead to up to six years’ imprisonment and a fine of US $250,000.60.
