Aeronautical charts for en route instrument navigation at or above 18,000 feet MSL.
Industry:Aviation
Certain propeller rpm settings or helicopter rotor speeds can cause the VOR course deviation indicator (CDI) to fluctuate as much as ±6°. Slight changes to the rpm setting will normally smooth out this roughness.
Industry:Aviation
Glossy, clear, or translucent ice formed by the relatively slow freezing of large, supercooled water droplets.
Industry:Aviation
Airspace established for the purpose of separating certain military training activities from IFR traffic.
Industry:Aviation
A flight instrument consisting of a rate gyro to indicate the rate of yaw and a curved glass inclinometer to indicate the relationship between gravity and centrifugal force. The turn-and-slip indicator indicates the relationship between angle of bank and rate of yaw. Also called a turn-and-bank indicator.
Industry:Aviation
Aeronautical charts for en route IFR navigation below 18,000 feet MSL.
Industry:Aviation
High-intensity flasher system installed at many large airports. The flashers consist of a series of brilliant blue-white bursts of light flashing in sequence along the approach lights, giving the effect of a ball of light traveling toward the runway.
Industry:Aviation
ATC permission for an aircraft to proceed under specified traffic conditions within controlled airspace, for the purpose of providing separation between known aircraft.
Industry:Aviation
Airspace of defined vertical and lateral dimensions established for the conduct of military training at airspeeds in excess of 250 knots indicated airspeed (KIAS).
Industry:Aviation
In stress analysis, the load that causes physical breakdown in an aircraft or aircraft component during a strength test, or the load that according to computations, should cause such a breakdown.
