  2. Aircraft approach category - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_approach_category

    Table II-5-1-2 Aircraft approach categories do not change during day-to-day operation. To change an aircraft's category, an aircraft must be re-certified with a different maximum landing mass. [1]: II-5-1-3 Pilots may not use a lower category than the one certified, but may choose to use a higher category for higher speed approaches. [2]

  3. Airfield traffic pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airfield_traffic_pattern

    Fast aircraft, for example military jets, may enter the pattern with a run-and-break (in the US, overhead maneuver or overhead break). The aircraft flies at speed along the final leg, and makes a sharp, high-G turn above midfield to lose speed and arrive on the downwind leg at pattern altitude and in landing configuration.

  4. Aeronautical chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeronautical_chart

    An aeronautical chart is a map designed to assist in the navigation of aircraft, much as nautical charts do for watercraft, or a roadmap does for drivers. Using these charts and other tools, pilots are able to determine their position, safe altitude, best route to a destination, navigation aids along the way, alternative landing areas in case of an in-flight emergency, and other useful ...

  5. Airspeed indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airspeed_indicator

    At a glance, the pilot can determine a recommended speed (V speeds) or if speed adjustments are needed. Single and multi-engine aircraft have common markings. For instance, the green arc indicates the normal operating range of the aircraft, from V S1 to V NO. The white arc indicates the flap operating range, V SO to V FE, used for approaches ...

  6. Air navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_navigation

    ADF uses non-directional beacons (NDBs) on the ground to drive a display which shows the direction of the beacon from the aircraft. The pilot may use this bearing to draw a line on the map to show the bearing from the beacon. By using a second beacon, two lines may be drawn to locate the aircraft at the intersection of the lines.

  7. Automatic terminal information service - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Terminal...

    Expect an ILS approach. Expect the approach procedure to be the one published for Runway 22 ILS. Surface wind 250, 14 knots. Wind direction from azimuth 250 degrees magnetic (west-southwest) with an average windspeed of 14 knots. Visibility 10 kilometre or more. General visibility 10 kilometers or more. Scattered 2400 feet, broken 4600 feet.

  8. Signal square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_square

    It contains ground symbols to indicate visually the conditions on the aerodrome to over-flying aircraft. [2] There are four basic signals. [3] In the UK, the square internal sides should measure 12 metres, "bordered by a white strip 30 centimetres wide" [4] and "so located on the aerodrome that it is visible from all directions of approach". [5]

  9. Run and break - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run_and_break

    Once safely cleared, the pilot aligns the aircraft with the active runway and calls initial at a set time from the airfield (usually 30 seconds or one minute). The aircraft is then flown at high speed along the deadside of the runway in the landing direction at a low altitude, typically less than 1,000 feet (300 m) AGL. By contrast, approach ...
