A002 . Definitions and Abbreviations HQ Control: 06/26/2017


HQ Revision: 02b

Unless otherwise defined in these operations specifications, all words, phrases, definitions, and
abbreviations have identical meanings to those used in Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
and in Title 49, Subtitle VII, United States Code, as amended. Additionally, the definitions listed
below are applicable to operations conducted in accordance with these operations specifications.

Term or Terms Definition

Air Ambulance (1) Air transportation of a person with a health condition that requires
Operations medical personnel as determined by a health care provider; or

(2) Holding out to the public as willing to provide air transportation to a


person with a health condition that requires medical personnel as
determined by a health care provider including, but not limited to,
advertisement, solicitation, association with a hospital or medical care
provider.

Agent For Service A person designated in writing by the foreign air carrier upon whom
service of all notices, processes, decisions, and requirements of the
Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, and
National Transportation Safety Board shall be made for and on behalf of
the foreign air carrier.

Airways Navigation Airways navigation facilities are those International Civil Aviation
Facilities Authority (ICAO) Standard Navigation Aids (VOR, VOR/DME, and/or
NDB) which are used to establish the en route airway structure within the
sovereign airspace of ICAO member states. These facilities are also used
to establish the degree of navigation accuracy required for air traffic
control and Class I navigation within that airspace.

Alternate Airport An airport at which an aircraft may land if a landing at the intended
airport becomes inadvisable.

Auto Flight Guidance Aircraft systems, such as an autopilot, autothrottles, displays, and controls,
System (AFGS) that are interconnected in such a manner so as to allow the crew to
automatically control the aircraft’s lateral and vertical flightpath and
speed. A flight management system is sometimes associated with an
AFGS.

Automatic Dependent A function for use by air traffic services in which the ADS equipment in
Surveillance (ADS) the aircraft automatically transmits data derived from on-board navigation
systems via a datalink. As a minimum, the data include aircraft
identification and three-dimensional position. ADS is sometimes referred
to as ADS-A or ADS-Contract (e.g., a communications contract between
the aircraft communications/surveillance system and an air traffic facility

or service provider only).

Automatic Dependent ADS-B is a function on an aircraft or surface vehicle operating within the
Surveillance- surface movement area that periodically broadcasts via datalink its state
Broadcast (ADS-B) vector (horizontal and vertical position, horizontal and vertical velocity)
and other information. ADS-B is Automatic in that it requires no external
stimulus to elicit a transmission. ADS-B is Dependent because it relies on
on-board navigation sources. ADS-B Surveillance information is
provided, via data link, to any users (either aircraft or ground-based)
within range of the Broadcast signal.

Available Landing ALD is that portion of a runway available for landing and roll-out for
Distance (ALD) aircraft cleared for land and hold short operations (LAHSO). This
distance is measured from the landing threshold to the hold-short point.

Category I Instrument A Category I instrument approach is any authorized precision or


Approach nonprecision instrument approach which is conducted with a minimum
height for IFR flight not less than 200 feet (60 meters) above the
touchdown zone and a minimum visibility/RVV not less than 1/2 statute
mile or RVR 1800 (for helicopters, 1/4 statute mile or RVR 1600).

Class I Navigation Class I navigation is any en route flight operation or portion of an


operation that is conducted entirely within the designated Operational
Service Volumes (or ICAO equivalents) of ICAO standard airway
navigation facilities (VOR, VOR/DME, NDB). Class I navigation also
includes en route flight operations over routes designated with a Minimum
En route Altitude (MEA) Gap (MEA is established with a gap in
navigation signal coverage) or ICAO equivalent. En route flight
operations conducted within these areas are defined as “Class I
navigation” operations irrespective of the navigation means used. Class I
navigation includes operations within these areas using pilotage or any
other means of navigation which does not rely on the use of VOR,
VOR/DME, or NDB.

Class II Navigation Class II navigation is any en route flight operation that is not defined as
Class I navigation. Class II navigation is any en route flight operation or
portion of an en route operation (irrespective of the means of navigation)
which takes place outside (beyond) the designated Operational Service
Volume (or ICAO equivalents) of ICAO standard airway navigation
facilities (VOR, VOR/DME, NDB). However, Class II navigation does
not include en route flight operations over routes designated with an MEA
Gap (or ICAO equivalent).

Cockpit Display of A CDTI is a generic display that provides a flightcrew with surveillance
Traffic Information information about other aircraft including their position. Traffic
(CDTI) information for a CDTI may be obtained from one or multiple sources
(including ADS-B, TCAS, and traffic information services) to provide
improved awareness of proximate aircraft and as an aid to visual
acquisition as part of the normal see and avoid operations both in the air
and on the ground.

Controller-pilot data A means of communication between controller and pilot,


link communications using data link for ATC communications.
(CPDLC)

Decision Altitude DA(H) is a specified minimum altitude in an instrument approach


(Height) procedure by which a missed approach must be initiated if the required
visual reference to continue the approach has not been established. The
‘altitude’ value is typically measured by a barometric altimeter; the
‘height’ value (H) is typically a radio altitude equivalent height above the
touchdown zone (HAT) used only for advisory reference and does not
necessarily reflect actual height above underlying terrain. [This definition
is consistent with both current U.S. operator usage and ICAO
international agreements.]

Dry Lease Any agreement in which a lessor such as an air carrier, bank, or leasing
company leases an aircraft without any crewmembers to a foreign air
carrier (the lessee) and in which the lessee maintains operational control.

Dual-Certified-Noise For purpose of noise compliance rules, dual-certificated airplanes are


Compliance those that are certificated to operate in either a Stage 2 or Stage 3
configuration. The only airplanes dual certificated by the FAA were
certain Boeing 747’s -300 series or earlier. For noise compliance
purposes, these airplanes are considered Stage 2 unless the operator gets
a supplemental type certificate to make the airplane Stage 3 only, or
unless the operator voluntarily limits the operation to Stage 3 only.

Fault Detection and FDE technology allows onboard GPS equipment to automatically detect a
Exclusion (FDE) satellite failure that effects navigation and to exclude that satellite from
the navigation solution.

Flight Management An integrated system used by flightcrews for flight planning, navigation,
Systems (FMS) performance management, aircraft guidance, and flight progress
monitoring.

Foreign Air Carrier For the purpose of these operations specifications, the term “foreign air
carrier” in these operations specifications shall mean the holder of the
operations specifications described in Part A Paragraph A001, and that
the authorizations, limitations, and procedures described in the operations
specifications shall apply to the foreign air carrier as well as to any of its
officers, employees, or agents used in the conduct of its operation.

14 CFR Part 97 as “ILS PRM.” ILS PRM approaches are conducted


between 4,299 and 3,000 feet parallel runway spacing. Runways 3,400
feet or greater apart utilize two parallel ILS courses, aligned with the
runway centerlines (RCLs). For runways spaced less than 3,400 feet, one
ILS is offset 2.5° to 3.0°.

Imported Airplane- For purposes of the noise compliance rules, an imported airplane is a
Noise Compliance Stage 2 airplane of 75,000 pounds or more that was purchased by a U.S.
person from a non-U.S. owner on or after November 5, 1990. [Under the
nonaddition rule (see 14 CFR Section 91.855), an imported airplane may
not be operated to or from any airport in the contiguous United States.
Such airplanes may be owned and registered by U.S. persons but are
limited to operation outside the contiguous United States.]

Interchange An interchange arrangement is a method of providing operational


Arrangement(s) flexibility and greater utilization of aircraft.
Interchange arrangements permit a foreign air carrier to take or relinquish
operational control of an aircraft at an airport located either in the U.S. or
in the State of the foreign air carrier.

maneuvering. The 'altitude' value is typically measured by a barometric


altimeter; the 'height' value (H) is typically a radio altitude equivalent
height above the touchdown zone (HAT) or height above airport (HAA)
published elevation. The (H) is used only for advisory reference and does
not necessarily reflect actual height above underlying terrain. [This
definition is consistent with both current U.S. operator usage and ICAO
international agreements.]

National Airspace The common network of U.S. airspace; air navigation facilities, equipment
System and services, airports or landing areas; aeronautical charts, information
and services; rules, regulations and procedures, technical information, and
manpower and material. Included are system components shared jointly
with the military (for definition of U.S. airspace, see “United States”).

Operations A person designated by the foreign air carrier to whom all contacts
Representative regarding these operations specifications and the foreign air carrier’s
operations within the United States shall be addressed for and on behalf
of the foreign air carrier.

Operational Service The Operational Service Volume is that volume of airspace surrounding a
Volume NAVAID which is available for operational use and within which a signal
of usable strength exists and where that signal is not operationally limited
by co-channel interference. Operational Service Volume includes all of
the following:

(1) The officially designated Standard Service Volume excluding any


portion of the Standard Service Volume which has been restricted.

(2) The Expanded Service Volume.

(3) Within the United States, any published instrument flight procedure
(victor or jet airway, SID, STARS, SIAPS, or instrument departure).

(4) Outside the United States, any designated signal coverage or

predictive information may also be determined during flight planning by


contacting an FAA Flight Service Station.

Refueling Airport An airport approved as an airport to which flights may be dispatched only
for refueling. Additionally, for operations with airplanes having a seating
capacity of more than 30 passengers and/or a maximum payload of more
than 7,500 pounds, an airport certificated under 14 CFR Part 139 or the
military equivalent.

Regular Airport An airport approved under scheduled service to a community as the


regular stop to that community. Additionally, for operations with airplanes
having a seating capacity of more than 30 passengers and/or a maximum
payload of more than 7,500 pounds, an airport certificated under 14 CFR
Part 139 or the military equivalent.

Reliable Fix A “reliable fix” means station passage of a VOR, VORTAC, or NDB. A
reliable fix also includes a VOR/DME fix, an NDB/DME fix, a VOR
intersection, an NDB intersection, and a VOR/NDB intersection provided
course guidance is available from one of the facilities and the fix lies
within the designated operational service volumes of both facilities which
define the fix.

Required Navigation A statement of navigation performance necessary for operations within a


Performance (RNP) defined airspace.

Required Navigation Applies to aircraft equipped with INS or IRU systems where those
Performance (RNP) systems provide the means of navigation to navigate to the degree of
Time Limit accuracy required by ATC. The FAA-approved time in hours--after the
system is placed in navigation mode or is updated en route--that the
specific INS or IRU make/model can meet a specific RNP type on a
95% probability basis. It is used to establish the area of operations or
routes on which the aircraft/navigation system is qualified to operate.

Required Navigation A value typically expressed as a distance in nautical miles from the
Performance (RNP) intended position within which an aircraft would be for at least 95 percent
Type of the total flying time. For example, RNP-4 represents a lateral and
longitudinal navigation accuracy of 4 nm on a 95 percent basis. Note:
Applications of RNP to terminal area and other operations may also
include a vertical component.

RNAV (GPS) PRM Area navigation (RNAV) (GPS) PRM approach that may be substituted
for an ILS PRM or LDA PRM approach and is procedurally equivalent.

Runway In these operations specifications the term “runway” in the case of land
airports, water airports, and heliports, shall mean that portion of the
surface intended for the takeoff and landing of land airplanes, seaplanes,
or rotorcraft, as appropriate.

Simultaneous Offset This operation comprises one ILS and one LDA with glide slope. The

Foreign Operations Specifications

Instrument Approach ILS is aligned with its runway, but the LDA serving the second runway
(SOIA) is offset (between 2.5° and 3°) from a parallel track. This offset permits
simultaneous instrument approach operations to parallel runways spaced
less than 3,000 feet apart, but no less than 750 feet. Because of the
offset, this operation is also known as an SOIA.

RVR Runway Visual Range (RVR)- An instrumentally derived value, based on


standard calibrations, that represents the horizontal distance a pilot will
see down the runway from the approach end. It is based on the sighting
of either high intensity runway lights or on the visual contrast of other
targets whichever yields the greater visual range. RVR, in contrast to
prevailing or runway visibility, is based on what a pilot in a moving aircraft
should see looking down the runway. RVR is horizontal visual range, not
slant visual range. It is based on the measurement of a transmissometer
made near the touchdown point of the instrument runway and is reported
in hundreds of feet. RVR is used in lieu of RVV and/or prevailing visibility
in determining minimums for a particular runway.

(1) Touchdown RVR- The RVR visibility readout values obtained from
RVR equipment serving the runway touchdown zone.

(2) Mid-RVR- The RVR readout values obtained from RVR equipment
located midfield of the runway.

(3) Rollout RVR- The RVR readout values obtained from RVR
equipment located nearest the rollout end of the runway.

RVV Runway Visibility Value (RVV). The visibility determined for a particular

VFR Station- VFR station-referenced Class I navigation is any operation conducted


Referenced Class I within the operational service volumes of ICAO standard navigation aids
Navigation under visual flight rules (VFR) which uses nonvisual navigation aids
(stations), such as VOR, VOR/DME, or NDB as the primary navigation
reference. VFR station-referenced Class I navigation includes Class I
navigation conducted on-airways and off-airway routings predicated on
airways navigation facilities. These operations also include Class I
navigation using an area navigation system, which is certificated for IFR
flights over the routes being flown.

Wet Lease Any leasing or other agreement, other than a code-sharing arrangement,
in which a lessor such as an air carrier leases an aircraft and at least one
flight crewmember to another air carrier (the lessee) where the lessor
retains operational control. A wet lease requires that a written agreement
between the lessor and the lessee be executed by authorized officers of
the two parties. Either a copy of the lease agreement or a written
memorandum of the terms of the lease agreement must be provided to the
Administrator.

Wide Area WAAS has been developed to improve the accuracy, integrity, availability,
Augmentation System and reliability of GPS signals. WAAS utilizes a fixed localized ground
(WAAS) station to calculate GPS integrity and correction data, then broadcasts this
information through the GPS satellites to GPS/WAAS users along with
ranging signals. It is a safety critical system consisting of a ground
network of reference and integrity monitor data processing sites which
assess current GPS performance, as well as a space segment that
broadcasts that assessment to GNSS users to support IFR navigation.

C068 . Noise Abatement Departure Profiles HQ Control: 05/06/2002


HQ Revision: 010

The foreign air carrier shall conduct noise abatement departure profile (NADP) operations in
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph and the procedures in the foreign air carrier’s
manuals and approved or accepted by the State of the Operator. The foreign air carrier shall use the
approved NADP’s for its turbojet airplanes, having a maximum certificated takeoff gross weight of
more that 75,000 pounds, operating from a noise sensitive airport within the United States. The
foreign air carrier shall conduct all NADP’s in accordance with the restrictions and limitations
specified in this paragraph and shall not conduct any other noise abatement departure profile
operations. For the purpose of these operations specifications, NADP’s shall be limited, for any
airplane type at any one time, to a maximum of two profiles: (1) Close-in NADP operations; and/or
(2) Distant NADP operations. Only one NADP can be designated for each runway at each airport.
The foreign air carrier’s NADP’s must meet the following criteria:

a. For Each NADP, the foreign air carrier shall specify the altitude above the field elevation (AFE)
at which thrust reduction from takeoff thrust (Close-In Profile) or airplane configuration change
(Distant Profile), excluding gear retraction, is initiated.

b. Close-In NADP: The foreign air carrier shall use the following NADP criteria for individual
airplane types intended to provide noise reduction for noise sensitive areas located in close
proximity to the departure end of the runway:

(1) Initiate thrust cutback at an altitude of no less than 800 feet AFE and prior to initiation of
flaps or slats retraction.

(2) The thrust cutback may be made by manual throttle reduction or by approved automatic
means. The automatic means may be armed prior to takeoff for cutback at or above
800 feet AFE or may be pilot initiated at or above 800 feet AFE.

(3) For airplanes without an operational automatic thrust restoration system, achieve and
maintain no less than the thrust level necessary after thrust reduction to maintain, for the
flaps/slats configuration of the airplane, the takeoff path engine-inoperative climb gradients
specified in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 25.111(c)(3) in the
event of an engine failure.

(4) For airplanes with an operational automatic thrust restoration system, achieve and maintain
no less than the thrust level necessary after thrust reduction to maintain, for the flaps/slats
configuration of the airplane, a takeoff path engine-inoperative climb gradient of zero
percent, provided that the automatic thrust restoration system will, at a minimum, restore
sufficient thrust to maintain the takeoff path engine-inoperative climb gradients specified in
14 CFR Section 25.111(c)(3) in the event of an engine failure.

(5) During the thrust reduction, coordinate the pitchover rate and thrust reduction to provide a
decrease in pitch consistent with allowing indicated airspeed to decay to no more than 5
knots below the all-engine target climb speed, and in no case to less than V2 for the airplane
configuration. For automated throttle systems, acceptable speed tolerances can be found in

(6) Maintain the speed and thrust criteria as described in steps b(3) through b(5) to 3,000 feet
AFE or above, or until the airplane has been fully transitioned to the en-route climb
configuration (whichever occurs first), then transition to normal en-route climb procedures.

c. Distant NADP: The foreign air carrier shall use the following NADP criteria for individual
airplane types intended to provide noise reduction for all other noise sensitive areas.

(1) Initiate flaps/slats retraction prior to thrust cutback initiation. Thrust cutback is initiated at an
altitude no less than 800 feet AFE.

(2) The thrust cutback may be made by manual throttle reduction or by approved automatic
means. The automatic means may be armed prior to takeoff for cutback at or above
800 feet AFE or may be pilot-initiated at or above 800 feet AFE.

(3) For airplanes without an operational automatic thrust restoration system, achieve and
maintain no less than the thrust level necessary after thrust reduction to maintain, for the
flaps/slats configuration of the airplane, the takeoff path engine-inoperative climb gradients
specified in 14 CFR Section 25.111(c)(3) in the event of an engine failure.

(4) For airplanes with an operational automatic thrust restoration system, achieve and maintain
no less than the thrust level necessary after thrust reduction to maintain, for the flaps/slats
configuration of the airplane, a takeoff path engine-inoperative climb gradient of zero
percent, provided that the automatic thrust restoration system will, at a minimum, restore
sufficient thrust to maintain the takeoff path engine-inoperative climb gradients specified in
14 CFR Section 25.111(c)(3) in the event of an engine failure.

(5) During the thrust reduction, coordinate the pitchover rate and thrust reduction to provide a
decrease in pitch consistent with allowing indicated airspeed to decay to no more than 5
knots below the all-engine target climb speed, and in no case to less than V2 for the airplane
configuration. For automatic throttle systems, acceptable speed tolerances can be found in
AC 25-15, Approval of Flight Management Systems in Transport Category Airplanes.

(6) Maintain the speed and thrust criteria as described in steps c(3) through c(5) to 3,000 feet
AFE or above, or until the airplane has been fully transitioned to the en route climb
configuration (whichever occurs first), then transition to normal en route climb
procedures.

(3) If there is a question that the weather conditions at the time of arrival may not allow the
flightcrew sufficient visibility conditions, the flightcrew must have in its possession and use an
authorized visual procedure which assures obstacle clearance or avoidance. The minimum altitudes
under § 91.119, or those prescribed in the authorized visual procedure (whichever are higher) apply.

d. Terminal Departures VFR. At airports which do not have operating ATC facilities and where it
also is not otherwise possible for the flightcrew to obtain an IFR clearance to depart on an IFR flight
plan, or at an airport utilizing a charted visual departure procedure established by the FAA, the flight
may takeoff and depart under VFR provided all the following conditions exist. In addition, the
flightcrew may not conduct VFR operations in the terminal area unless the limitations and provisions
of subparagraph f. of this operations specification are met.

(1) The following provisions and weather conditions at the airport at the time of takeoff must be
met:

(a) Reported weather visibility must be as specified in § 91.155.

(b) Reported ceiling must be 1,000 feet or greater.

(c) The flightcrew must maintain the basic cloud clearance as specified in § 91.155, and
have visual reference with the ground or visual contact with a landmark when referenced in a
published procedure to be followed for the airport.

(d) Ceiling and cloud clearance must be as such to allow the flightcrew to maintain the
minimum altitudes prescribed in § 91.129, § 91.130, or § 91.131, as applicable for the airspace class
in which the flight is operated.

(2) The flight remains in Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC) at all times while operating
under VFR.

(3) Unless operating under certain en route provisions of Part 93 and operations specification
B051 or B056, the flightcrew must obtain an IFR clearance as soon as practical after takeoff, or as
directed by the charted visual departure procedure established for that airport by the FAA, but under
no circumstances farther than 50 NM from the departure airport.

(4) If there is a question that the weather conditions at the time of takeoff may not allow the
flightcrew sufficient visibility conditions, the flightcrew must have in its possession and use an
authorized visual procedure which assures obstacle clearance or avoidance.

e. Terminal Departures IFR. The flightcrew must comply with the departure procedures
established for a particular airport by the FAA if ATC does not specify any particular departure
procedure in the takeoff clearance given for that airport. The flightcrew may accept an IFR
clearance containing a clearance for a VMC takeoff and climb out to a specified point in the
clearance, if the limitations and provisions of subparagraph f of this operations specification are met.

f. Special Limitations and Provisions for VFR. All VFR operations authorized by this operations
specification must be conducted in accordance with the following limitations and provisions.

(1) The foreign air carrier must identify obstacles and use airport obstacle data which ensures
that the performance requirements of the State of the Operator are met.

(2) The weather conditions must allow the flightcrew sufficient visibility conditions to identify
and avoid obstacles, safely maneuver using external visual references, and maintain minimum
altitudes.
