Terms for subject Aviation (1801 entries)
initial point On the H-hour control line, the point at which the faker route portion of the exercise begins
initial trajectory information sharing initial TIS Michae­lBurov
inland navigation fix A fix on a North American route (NAR) at which the common route or the non-common route begins or ends
inner marker A marker beacon used with an instrument landing system (ILS) precision approach located between the middle marker and the end of the ILS runway, transmitting a radiation pattern keyed at six dots per second and indicating to the pilot, both aurally and visually, that he/she is at the designated decision height (DH) normally 100 ft above the touchdown zone elevation, on the ILS CAT II approach. It also marks progress during a CAT III approach.

It also marks progress during a CAT III approach.
instrument approach A series of predetermined manoeuvres by reference to flight instruments with specified protection from obstacles from the initial approach fix, or where applicable, from the beginning of a defined arrival route to a point from which a landing can be completed and thereafter, if a landing is not completed, to a position at which holding or en route obstacle clearance criteria apply
instrument approach chart An aeronautical chart that depicts the aeronautical data required to execute an instrument approach procedure (IAP) to an airport. These charts depict the procedures, including all related data, and the airport diagram. Each procedure is designated for use with a specific type of electronic navigation system, including non-directional beacon (NDB) tactical air navigation aid (TACAN) VHF omnidirectional range (VOR) instrument landing system (ILS) landing system (MLS) and area navigation (RNAV) These charts are identified by the type of NAVAID providing final approach guidance.

instrument approach waypoints Geographic positions, given in degrees of latitude and longitude, used in defining instrument approach procedures (IAP) Waypoints may be coded in aircraft navigation data bases and depicted on instrument approach charts as either fly-by waypoints (turn anticipation permitted) or fly-over waypoints (turn anticipation not permitted) Waypoints that define the missed approach point (MAP) and the missed approach holding waypoint (MAHWP) shall be coded as fly-over waypoints. over waypoint, initial approach waypoint (IAWP) intermediate approach waypoint (IWP) missed approach holding waypoint (MAHWP) missed approach turning waypoint (MATWP) missed approach waypoint (MAWP) and downwind termination waypoint
instrument flight conditions Restricted meteorological conditions in which control of an aircraft in flight (other than a balloon) is required to be maintained solely by reference to aircraft flight instruments
instrument flight rules A set of rules governing the conduct of flight under instrument meteorological conditions
IFR approach instrument flight rules approach
instrument flight rules/visual flight rules IFR/VFR flight rules Michae­lBurov
il instrument landing
instrument landing system A radionavigation precision-approach system that provides aircraft with horizontal and vertical guidance just before and during landing and that, at certain fixed points, indicates the distance to the reference point of landing
instrument meteorological conditions Meteorological conditions less than the minima specified in Subpart 602 of the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) for visual meteorological conditions (VMC) expressed in terms of visibility and distance from cloud
instrument meteorological conditions Meteorological conditions expressed in terms of visibility, distance from cloud, and ceiling less than the minima specified for visual meteorological conditions
instrument runway A runway intended for the operation of aircraft making a precision or non-precision instrument approach
integrated development environments platform IDE platform Michae­lBurov
intended runway A runway at an aerodrome intended by a pilot for landing or departing
