PURPOSE
) i. \7 {/ U/ ]) Ja. This Glossary was compiled to promote a common understanding of the terms used in the Air Traffic ^% M. y& D; [% {' W( d
Control system. It includes those terms which are intended for pilot/controller communications. Those terms4 Z' u) v) \7 e* M
most frequently used in pilot/controller communications are printed in bold italics. The definitions are primarily; g' k4 }5 E: d9 s
defined in an operational sense applicable to both users and operators of the National Airspace System. Use of
% n( F2 G0 o2 i9 |# V3 _; ~the Glossary will preclude any misunderstandings concerning the system's design, function, and purpose.0 i5 l) S: X% y
b. Because of the international nature of flying, terms used in the Lexicon, published by the International Y: Z$ r$ ^) q& T: G b
Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), are included when they differ from FAA definitions. These terms are
, h" R% I+ Y u$ Q; c2 C6 c2 ufollowed by “[ICAO].” For the reader's convenience, there are also cross references to related terms in other parts$ V- ?8 a$ D. B6 b/ u0 b
of the Glossary and to other documents, such as the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and the Aeronautical( k9 g X7 K1 p( ?
Information Manual (AIM).
2 J( ~0 y) I2 o" _& dc. This Glossary will be revised, as necessary, to maintain a common understanding of the system.
