Maximum All Up Weights the maximum weight that an aircraft can use in taking off of a specific runway under a specific set of conditions.
A procedure to be followed by an aircraft, if after an instrument approach, a landing is not effected.
A ground-based landing aid presently under development using microwave to guide aircraft to make approaches and land on an aerodrome. The use of this. navigational aid is planned to be adopted by ICAO in 1990.
: Minimum height that an aircraft must reach
when overflying an obstacle.
:
An approach accomplished by using the Instrument Landing System (ILS) or by following instructions given by an air traffic controller using radar equipment designed for the purpose of guiding an aircraft to make a landing on the runway.
A runway aligned at an angle of 070 degrees (or 250 degrees) from magnetic north. Runway 07 means operations in the direction of 070 degrees and Runway 25 in the direction of 250 degrees.
Length of runway suitable for the ground run of an aircraft taking off plus length of an area selected as a suitable area for an aircraft to make a portion of its initial climb to a specified height.
An area containing the airspace at the confluence of aircraft routes established by Air Traffic Services in the vicinity of one or more aerodromes.
(The lower limit of a TMA is usually 2000 ft above
sea level or as specified by the controlling authority.)
