Maam Krizza Flashcards
(BLANK) is responsible for ensuring the safety, regularity, and efficiency of air navigation by providing accurate and updated aeronautical information.
Aeronautical Information Services (ais)
BLANK. is a comprehensive document that provides essential aeronautical data necessary for flight operations.
- It contains permanent aeronautical information and is regularly updated.
Aeronautical Information Package (Aip)
is a notice containing important information about temporary or permanent changes in aeronautical facilities, services, procedures, or hazards.
NOTAM OR NOTICE TO AIRMEN
BLANK provide pilots with a summary of relevant NOTAMs before a flight.
- This ensures that pilots have up-to-date operationally significant information** before departure.
Pre-Flight Information Bulletins (PIB)
BLANK contain non-time-critical information related to aviation safety, air navigation, and technical matters.
Aeronautical Information Circulars (AICs)
Blank ensures that aeronautical data updates follow a standardized global cycle.
- Changes to flight procedures, airspace structures, or navigational aids must be published 28 days in advance.
Aeronautical Information Regulation and Control (AIRAC) System
Effective communication is crucial for aviation safety, ensuring clear and reliable exchanges between pilots and air traffic controllers (ATC)
Communication System
Operate within 118.0 - 135.975 MHz - Used for air-to-ground and air-to-air communication.
- Clear line-of-sight communication but limited by terrain and weather.
VHF OR VERY HIGH FREQUENCY
Text-based communication system** that reduces radio frequency congestion**.
- Enhances long-distance communications, especially over oceans and remote areas.
CPDLC or Controller Pilot Data Link Communications
Blank help pilots determine aircraft position, plan routes, and ensure accurate flight paths.
Navigation systems
radio signals** to determine an aircraft’s bearing relative to the station.
VHF omnidirectional Range or VOR
slant range
Distance Measuring Equipment (DME)
using two radio beams (localizer & glide slope)
Instrument Landing System (ILS)
Allows aircraft to fly flexible and direct routes, reducing reliance on ground-based aids.
RNAV
Blank helps track aircraft position, ensuring efficient air traffic management.
Surveillance Systems
Detects aircraft using reflected radio waves.
- Provides basic position data (range & bearing) but lacks altitude information.
Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR)
Uses aircraft transponders to provide detailed flight information (altitude, aircraft ID, emergency codes, etc.)
Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR)
- Uses multiple ground sensors to track aircraft positions through Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) signals.
Multilateration (MLAT)
Uses GPS to transmit aircraft position, velocity, and altitude.
- Provides real-time tracking for ATC and nearby aircraft.
Satellite-Based Surveillance Systems
ATC relies on BLANK to manage air traffic, enhance flight safety, and prevent mid-air collisions.
CNS systems
BLANK provides essential aeronautical data through AIP, NOTAMs, AICs, and the AIRAC system.
- CNS systems improve communication, navigation, and surveillance in aviation.
AIS
BLANK (ADS-B, MLAT, FANS) enhance real-time tracking, airspace management, and efficiency
