Military Flight Advisory Unit
A military ground station established to provide en route flight information, airport advisory, ground control, field condition reports, flight planning, alerting service, navigation assistance, NOTAMs, PIREPs and weather reports. An MFAU may be used to accept and relay VFR and IFR position reports and ATC clearances.

military operations area
An airspace of defined dimensions established to segregate certain military activities from IFR traffic and to identify, for VFR traffic, where the activities are conducted
military radar control unit
A military ATC facility established to provide ATC service using radar-derived information
Military Radar Unit
MRU
military terminal control area
A controlled airspace of defined dimensions normally established in the vicinity of a military aerodrome and within which special procedures and exemptions exist for military aircraft. The terminology
(Class B, C, D or E equivalent)
used for the designations of MTCAs describes the equivalent level of service and operating rules for civilian aircraft operating within the MTCA and under military control.
military terminal control unit
A system of control by surveillance and precision radar, consolidated into one specific military unit to provide radar traffic control service to IFR flights operating within a designated terminal control area
military training route
An airspace of defined dimensions
(a)
that is established for the conduct of military training flights;
(b)
within which IFR or VFR aircraft may operate; and
(c)
that may be established in controlled or uncontrolled airspace, or both
milligramme day
mg day
minimum crossing altitude
The lowest altitude at certain fixes at which an aircraft must cross when proceeding in the direction of a higher minimum en route IFR altitude
minimum descent altitude
The altitude above sea level
(ASL)
specified in the Canada Air Pilot
(CAP)
or the route and approach inventory for a non-precision approach, below which descent shall not be made until the required visual reference to continue the approach to land has been established
minimum en route altitude
The altitude above sea level
(ASL)
between specified fixes on airways or air routes that assures acceptable navigational signal coverage and that meets the IFR obstacle clearance requirements
minimum en route IFR altitude
The altitude above sea level
(ASL)
between specified fixes on airways or air routes that assures acceptable navigational signal coverage and that meets the IFR obstacle clearance requirements
minimum equipment list
A document approved by the Minister pursuant to CAR 605.07
3
that authorizes an operator to operate an aircraft with aircraft equipment that is inoperative under the conditions specified therein and that may specify certain equipment that must be operative.
minimum fuel
An expression used to inform ATC that an aircraft’s fuel supply has reached a state that is sufficient to reach destination, provided that unexpected delays are not encountered
minimum holding altitude
The lowest altitude prescribed fora holding pattern that assures navigational signal coverage, communications, and meets obstacle clearance requirements
minimum IFR altitude
The lowest IFR altitude established for use in a specific airspace. Depending on the airspace concerned, the minimum IFR altitude may be a minimum obstacle clearance altitude
(MOCA)
a minimum en route altitude
(MEA)
a minimum sector altitude
(MSA)
a minimum vectoring altitude
(MVA)
a safe altitude 100 NM, an area minimum altitude
(AMA)
a transition altitude or a missed approach altitude. The minimum IFR altitude provides obstacle clearance but may or may not be within controlled airspace.
