Explanation:
Pilots and air traffic controllers communicate with one another using specialized lingo in the aviation industry. The Aviation Alphabet, a particular jargon, uses the same 26 letters that many of us learned in kindergarten. Each letter corresponds to a phrase that is used to identify airplanes and is frequently referred to as the tail number. Taxiways are similar to the highways we travel on.
A- Alpha
U - Uniform
P - Papa
D - Delta
I - India
Explanation:
Ground, Departure, Approach, Clearance Delivery, and Tower are all different positions in Air Traffic Control (ATC) that serve different functions in managing air traffic. Each of these positions is critical in ensuring the safe and efficient management of air traffic. They work together as a team to maintain a high level of safety and professionalism in aviation.
Explanation:
4 miles is the shortest distance that an aircraft is allowed to be next to another aircraft on approach to the runway.
Explanation:
An active runway CANNOT be cleared by a ground controller (e.g., position and hold or "call tower when in position for takeoff"). In order to ensure the separation of aircraft on the runway is legal, the local controller (referred to by the pilots as the Tower) schedules arrivals and departures. Before giving a plane permission to cross a runway, the ground controller must consult with the local controller. Ground controllers can give instructions (not "commands") such as "taxi to...," "hold short of," "return to...", "stop," "taxi across Runway XX," and others.
