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 Title 49 United States Code as cited in Public Law 103

- 272, as amended. Additionally, the definitions listed below are applicable to operations conducted in accordance with these operations specifications.

Term or Terms Definition
Air Ambulance Aircraft An aircraft used in air ambulance operations. The aircraft must be equipped with at least medical oxygen, suction, and a stretcher, isolette, or other approved patient restraint/containment device. The aircraft need not be used exclusively as an air ambulance aircraft and the equipment need not be permanently installed.

Air Ambulance Operations (a) Air transportation of a person with a health condition that requires medi c p ersonnel as determined by a health care provider; or (b) Holding out to the public as willing to provide air transportation to a per s 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 and (c) Uses an air ambulance aircraft, either fixed wing or helicopter. Airways Navigation Facilities Airways navigation facilities are those 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. Auto Flight Guidance System (AFGS) Aircraft systems, such as an autopilot, auto throttles, displays, and controls, 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 Surveillance (ADS) A function for use by air traffic services in which the ADS equipment in 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 Surveillance

Broadcast (ADS

- B) ADS- B is a function on an aircraft or surface vehicle operating within the surface movement area that periodically broadcasts via datalink its state vector (horizontal and vertical position, horizontal and vertical velocity) and U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation A dministration Operations Specifications

Print Date: 11/29/2010 A002

- 1 ASTAR USA LLC Certificate No.: DHLA898Mother 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 p rovided, via data link, to any users (either aircraft or ground

- based) within range of the Broadcast signal. Available Landing Distance (ALD) ALD is that portion of a runway available for landing and roll

- out for 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 Approach A Category I instrument approach is any authorized precision or 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).

Certificate Holder In these operations specifications the term "certificate holder" shall mean the holder of the certificate described in Part A paragraph A001 and any of its officers, employees, or agents used in the conduct of operations under these operations specifications. 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 an "MEA GAP" (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 which is not defined as Class I navigation. Class II navigation is any en route flight operation or p ortion 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 Traffic Information (CDTI) A CDTI is a generic display that provides a flightcrew with surveillance information about other aircraft including their position. Traffic 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.

Decision Altitude DA(H) is a specified minimum altitude in an instrument approach U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation A dministration Operations Specifications

Print Date: 11/29/2010 A002

- 2 ASTAR USA LLC Certificate No.: DHLA898M(Height) p rocedure 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.]

Dual

- Certificated

N oise Compliance For purposes of noise compliance rules, dual

- certificated airplanes are 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 p urposes, 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 Exclusion (FDE) FDE technology allows onboard GPS equipment to automatically detect a satellite failure that effects navigation and to exclude that satellite from the navigation solution. Flight Management Systems (FMS) An integrated system used by flightcrews for flight planning, navigation, p erformance management, aircraft guidance, and flight progress monitoring. Free Flight A safe and efficient flight operating capability under instrument flight rules in which the operators have the freedom to select a path and speed in real time. Air traffic restrictions are imposed only to ensure separation, to p reclude exceeding airport capacity, to prevent unauthorized flight through special use airspace, and to ensure safety of flight. Restrictions are limited in extent and duration to correct the identified problem. Any activity that removes restrictions represents a move toward Free Flight.

Global Position System (GPS) Landing System (GLS) GLS is a differential GPS

- based landing system providing both vertical and lateral position fixing capability. The term GLS may also be applied to any GNSS

- based differentially corrected landing system.

Helicopter Emergency Medical Service Helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS) is (a) Air transportation by helicopter of a person with a health condition that requires medical personnel as determined by a health care provider; or (b) Holding out to the public as willing to provide air transportation b y helicopter to a person with a health condition that requires medical p ersonnel as determined by a health care provider including, but not limited advertisement, solicitation, association with a hospital or medical care provi (c) Helicopter emergency medical evacuation service (HEMES)

ILS

- PRM The simultaneous close parallel ILS approaches are enabled through the implementation of special p recision r unway m onitoring (PRM) equipmen t operated by Air Traffic Control at certain airfields for some runways. U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation A dministration Operations Specifications

Print Date: 11/29/2010 A002

- 3 ASTAR USA LLC Certificate No.: DHLA898MThese approaches are included in 14 CFR Part 97 as “ ILS PRM.” This operation comprises two instrument landing systems (ILS), each aligned with its respective runway and parallel to each other. ILS/PRM permits simultaneous instrument approach operations to parallel runways spaced less than 4,300 feet apart, but no less than 3,000 feet. Imported Airplane

N oise Compliance For purposes of the noise compliance rules, an imported airplane is a 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 non addition rule (see 14 CFR § 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.]

JAA JAR

- OPS

- 1 Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR) operational agreements (OPS). The European JAA adopted common operational guidance for all Member States in order to harmonize the rules within those States. The JAR-OPS- 1, is part 1 of the operational agreement and comprises the operational requirements applicable to commercial air transportation fixed wing aircraft. LDA/PRM (SOIA) This operation comprises one ILS and one localizer type directional aid (LDA) with glide slope. The ILS is aligned with its runway, but the LDA serving the second runway is offset (no more than 3 degrees) from a p arallel 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 a simultaneous offset instrument approach (SOIA).
Life Vest, Non

Quick

- Donning A non

- quick

- donning life vest is one which must be removed from its container, placed over the wearer’ s head, and/or requires additional steps b eyond inflation to make it ready to use for its intended purpose. Life Vest, Quick

Donning A quick

- donning life vest is fastened around a person in a manner which requires the wearer only to pull on a single tab and lift the life vest over his/her head. At this point the life vest needs only to be inflated to be ready to use for its intended purpose. Local Flying Area An area designated by the operator in which air ambulance services will b e conducted. Each local flying area should be defined in a manner acceptable to the operator, the local Flight Standards District Office, and the Principal Operations Inspector, taking into account the operating environment, the geographic terrain features, and the capabilities of the aircraft. Major Contract Training Any flight training, flight testing, or flight checking leading to and maintaining certification and qualification of air carrier flightcrew members in accordance with the requirements (maneuvers and procedures) explicitly stated in 14 CFR Parts 61, 121, or 135; or in SFAR 58 Advanced Qualification Program (AQP), as applicable.

Minimum Descent Altitude (Height) MDA(H) is the lowest altitude in an instrument approach procedure to which a descent is authorized on final approach or during circle

- to

- land maneuvering. The 'altitude' value is typically measured by a barometric altimeter; the 'height' value (H) is typically a radio altitude equivalent heigh t above the touchdown zone (HAT) or height above airport (HAA) p ublished 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.] Operational Service Volume The Operational Service Volume is that volume of airspace surrounding a N AVAID which is available for operational use and within which a signal o usable strength exists and where that signal is not operationally limited by c channel interference. Operational Service Volume includes all of the following: (1) The officially designated Standard Service Volume excluding any porti o of the Standard Service Volume which has been restricted. (2) The Expanded Service Volume. (3) Within the United States, any published instrument flight procedure (vic t or jet airway, SID, STAR, SIAP, or instrument departure). (4) Outside the United States, any designated signal coverage or published instrument flight procedure equivalent to U.S. standards. Outsourced Training Any training, testing, or checking activity which an air carrier certificate holder provides by way of a contract arrangement with another party. Parabolic Flight Operations Parabolic flight operations are aerobatic maneuvers in which the aircraft is intentionally pitched in excess of 30 degrees above and 30 degrees below the horizon in a repeated fashion for the specific purpose of exposing the p articipants to reduced or zero gravity conditions. Planned Redispatch o r Re

- Release En Route The term "planned re

- dispatch or re

- release en route" means any flag operation (or any supplemental operation that includes a departure or arrival point outside the 48 contiguous United States and the District of Columbia) that is planned before takeoff to be re

- dispatched or re -released in flight in accordance with 14 CFR Section 121.631(c) to a destination airport other than the destination airport specified in the original dispatch or release. Polar Area (North) The north polar area of operations is that area that lies north of latitude N 78 o 00 ’. Qualified Local Observer A person who provides weather, landing area, and other information as required by the operator, and has been trained by the operator under a training program approved by the Principal Operations Inspector. U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation A dministration Operations Specifications

Print Date: 11/29/2010 A002

- 5 ASTAR USA LLC Certificate No.: DHLA898MRaw Terrain Raw terrain is devoid of any person, structure, vehicle or vessel.

Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) RAIM is a function that considers the availability of satisfactory signal integrity broadcasted from the particular GPS satellites used during a given flight. Onboard GPS navigators accomplish this automatically as the aircraft proceeds along its route. When insufficient signal integrity is detected an alarm is provided to the flightcrew. Using the predictive RAIM software flightcrews and dispatchers know in advance whether or not suitable GPS navigation will be available throughout the flight. This p redictive information may also be determined during flight planning by contacting an FAA Flight Service Station.

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 Performance (RNP) A statement of navigation performance necessary for operations within a defined airspace. Required Navigation Performance (RNP) Time Limit Applies to aircraft equipped with INS or IRU systems where those systems provide the means of navigation to navigate to the degree of 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% p robability basis. It is used to establish the area of operations or routes on which the aircraft/navigation system is qualified to operate. Required Navigation Performance (RNP) Type A value typically expressed as a distance in nautical miles from the intended position within which an aircraft would be for at least 95 percent 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.
Runway In these operations specifications the term "runway" in the case of land airports, water airports and heliports, and helipads shall mean that portion of the surface intended for the takeoff and landing of land airplanes, seaplanes, or rotorcraft, as appropriate.

Simultaneous offset instrument approach (SOIA) See definition for LDA/PRM.
