The present simple is one of the most commons verb tenses that we use but it’s sometimes confused with other tenses that are also related to the present.
Basic use: To talk about states, repeated actions
eg I have 5,000 flight hours of experience. (state – not an action)
eg I usually go to the airport every week. (repeated actions)
Advanced use: To talk about a future event which is scheduled to start at a specific time.
eg I have a flight at 3:15pm tomorrow. (it’s scheduled by the airline)
eg The train leaves at 9:45pm. (it’s scheduled by the train company)
Tip: Be sure you know how to conjugate the present simple correctly in the positive, negative and question forms.
Look at the diagram below of when we use the present simple, and also have a look at the advanced use of the present simple. Did you know it’s possible to use it to talk about the future?

Here’s the text to the listening from yesterday.
Enjoy!!
An Airbus was climbing to its cruise level when a passenger noticed something strange about the left engine. The fan cowl door was open and seconds after the passengers noticed this, the door separated from the engine. The same thing happened to the other engine also. This engine, the right one, was also damaged during the fan cowl door separation and fuel started to leak. The passenger alerted the flight attendant who told the pilots. They immediately cancelled their climb and initiated a descent to return to their airport of origin. Fortunately there was no fire, the plane landed safely and the engine with the fuel leak was shut down. The passengers disembarked and took another flight 90 minutes later.
