These changes are received well in advance so that users of the aeronautical data can update their flight management systems . For insignificant changes, the published calendar dates are used. In some countries the AIP is informally known as the Airman's Manual or the Air Pilot.
The manner in which aeronautical information is gathered and managed is governed by Annex 15 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation (ICAO Annex 15), which defines how an aeronautical information service shall receive and/or originate, collate or assemble, edit, format, publish/store and distribute specified aeronautical information ...
Aeronautical Message Handling System (AMHS) or Air Traffic Services Message Handling System (ATSMHS) is a standard for aeronautical ground-ground communications (e.g. for the transmission of NOTAM, flight plans or meteorological data) based on X.400 profiles. It has been defined by the ICAO. IWXXM requires the use of AMHS for international ...
ICAO: Non-discrete mode A code reserved use in mode S radar/ADS-B environment where the aircraft identification will be used to correlate the flight plan instead of the mode A code. [1] US: Used exclusively by ADS-B aircraft to inhibit mode 3A transmission. [3] US: Non-discrete code assignments in accordance with FAA Order JO 7110.65, 5-2.

In fact, for decades ICAO has observed that "in many areas of the world, the fastest, most effective and practical way to achieve a global SAR service is to develop regional systems" (from its International Aeronautical and Maritime SAR (IAMSAR) manual).
The sophisticated systems at large airports consist of two different radar systems, the primary and secondary surveillance radar. [1] The primary radar typically consists of a large rotating parabolic antenna dish that sweeps a vertical fan-shaped beam of microwaves around the airspace surrounding the airport. It detects the position and range ...
Mode S transponders are compatible with Mode A and Mode C Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) systems. [2] This is the type of transponder that is used for TCAS or ACAS II (Airborne Collision Avoidance System) functions, and is required to implement the extended squitter broadcast, one means of participating in ADS-B systems. A TCAS-equipped ...
