1) between aircraft, and
2) on the manoeuvring area between aircraft and obstructions; and
b) expediting and maintaining an orderly flow of air traffic.

5. Define Air traffic control unit :

6. Define Air traffic flow management (ATFM) :
A service established with the objective of contributing to a safe, orderly and expeditious flow of air traffic by ensuring that ATC capacity is utilized to the maximum extent possible and that the traffic volume is compatible with the capacities declared by the appropriate ATS authority.

7. Define Air traffic service :
A generic term meaning variously, flight information service, alerting service, air traffic advisory service, air traffic control service (area control service, approach control service or aerodrome control service).

8. Define Air traffic services airspaces :
Airspaces of defined dimensions, alphabetically designated, within which specific types of flights may operate and for which air traffic services and rules of operation are specified.

9. Define Air traffic services reporting office :
A unit established for the purpose of receiving reports concerning air traffic services

10. Define Air traffic services unit :
A generic term meaning variously, air traffic control unit, flight information centre or air traffic services reporting office.

11. Define Airway :
A control area or portion thereof established in the form of a corridor.

12. Define ALERFA :
The code word used to designate an alert phase.

13. Define Alerting service :
A service provided to notify appropriate organizations regarding aircraft in need of search and rescue aid, and assist such organizations as required.

14. Define Alert phase :
A situation wherein apprehension exists as to the safety of an aircraft and its occupants.

15. Define Alternate aerodrome :
An aerodrome to which an aircraft may proceed when it becomes either impossible or inadvisable to proceed to or to land at the aerodrome of intended landing.

Alternate aerodromes include the following :
Take-off alternate. An alternate aerodrome at which an aircraft can land should this become necessary shortly after takeoff and it is not possible to use the aerodrome of departure.
En-route alternate. An aerodrome at which an aircraft would be able to land after experiencing an abnormal or emergency condition while en route.
ETOPS en-route alternate. A suitable and appropriate alternate aerodrome at which an aeroplane would be able to land after experiencing an engine shutdown or other abnormal or emergency condition while en route in an ETOPS operation.
Destination alternate. An alternate aerodrome to which an aircraft may proceed should it become either impossible or inadvisable to land at the aerodrome of intended landing.

16. Define Approach control service :
Air traffic control service for arriving or departing controlled flights.

17. Define Approach control unit :
A unit established to provide air traffic control service to controlled flights arriving at, or departing from, one or more aerodromes.

18. Define Area control centre :
A unit established to provide air traffic control service to controlled flights in control areas under its jurisdiction.

19. Define Area control service :
Air traffic control service for controlled flights in control areas.

20. Define Area navigation (RNAV) :
A method of navigation which permits aircraft operation on any desired flight path within the coverage of ground- or space-based navigation aids or within the limits of the capability of self-contained aids, or a combination of these.
