a. This Glossary was compiled to promote a common understanding of the terms used in the Air Traffic
& }8 g* K% a$ x/ N$ RControl system. It includes those terms which are intended for pilot/controller communications. Those terms

defined in an operational sense applicable to both users and operators of the National Airspace System. Use of6 z) u0 S4 i8 w2 z$ J
the Glossary will preclude any misunderstandings concerning the system's design, function, and purpose.
1 K) N! U$ r) Y% z/ s5 e! Vb. Because of the international nature of flying, terms used in the Lexicon, published by the International
