agents. 

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. 

(a) Air transportation 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 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 and 

(c) Uses an air ambulance aircraft, either fixed wing or helicopter. 

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. 

A power that a person is vested with. 

Aircraft systems, such as an autopilot, auto throttles, displays, and controls, that 

are interconnected in such a maimer 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. 

A fiinction for use by air traffic services in which the ADS equipment in the 

aircraft automatically transmits data derived fi^om on-board navigation systems via 

a datalink. As a minimum, the data include aircraft identification and threedimensional 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). 

ADS-B is a fimction 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 other information. 

ADS-B is Automatic in that it requires no external stimulus to elicit a transmission.

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. 

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/RW not less than 1/2 statute mile or RVR 1800 (for helicopters, 1/4 

statute mile or RVR 1600). 

In these operations specifications the term "certificate holder" shall mean the 

holder of the certificate described in Part A paragraph AOOl and any of its officers, 

employees, or agents used in the conduct of operations under these operations 

specifications. 

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 diese 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 is any en route flight operation which 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). 

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. 

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

Dual-CertificatedNoise Compliance 

Duty 

Fault Detection and 

Exclusion (FDE) 

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 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. 

A task or fiinction a person must do. 

FDE technology allows onboard GPS equipment to automatically detect a satellite 

failure that effects navigation and to exclude that satellite from the navigation 

solution.

ILS-PRM 

An integrated system used by flightcrews for flight planning, navigation, 

performance management, aircraft guidance, and flight progress monitoring. 

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 resfrictions are imposed only to ensure separation, to preclude 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. 

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 (HEMS) is 

(a) Air transportation by helicopter of a person with a health condition that 

requires medical persormel as determined by a health care provider; or 

(b) Holding out to the public as willing to provide air U^ansportation by helicopter 

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. 

(c) Helicopter emergency medical evacuation service (HEMES) 

The simultaneous close parallel ILS approaches are enabled through the 

implementation of special precision runway monitoring (PRM) equipment 

operated by Air Traffic Control at certain airfields for some nmways. These 

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.

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 mle (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.] 

Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) Joint Aviation Requfrements (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 JAROPS-1, is part 1 of the operational agreement and comprises the operational 

requirements applicable to commercial air transportation fixed wing aircraft. 

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 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 knovra as a simultaneous offset instrument approach (SOIA). 

A lease is where an aircraft owner transfers possession and use of a specific 

aircraft to a lessee for a fixed period. In a lease, as opposed to other types of

Medical Crewmember 

Minimum Descent 

Altitude (Height) 

Operational Service 

Volume 

A person with medical training who is assigned to provide medical care and other 

crewmember duties related to the aviation operation during flight. 

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 height above the touchdovm zone 

(HAT) or height above airport (HAA) pubhshed 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.] 

The Operational Service Volume is that volume of airspace surrounding a 

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 cochannel 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, STAR, SIAP, or instrument departure). 

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

instrument flight procedure equivalent to U.S. standards. 

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 are acrobatic 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 participants 

to reduced or zero gravity conditions. 

The term "planned redispatch 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 redispatched 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.

Receiver Autonomous 

Integrity Monitoring 

(RAIM) 

Rehable Fix 

RAIM is a fimction 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 predictive information may also be determined during flight planning 

by contacting an FAA Flight Service Station. 

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) 

Required Navigation 

Performance (RNP) 

Time Limit 

Required Navigation 

Performance (RNP) 

Type 

A statement of navigation performance necessary for operations within a defined 

airspace. 

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% probability basis. It is used to establish the area of operations 

or routes on which the aircraft/navigation system is qualified to operate. 

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 tenninal 

area and other operations may also include a vertical component. . 

Responsibility 

Runway 

Something a person is accountable for. 

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. 

Sustainable Transfer 

VFR StationA sustainable transfer is a ti-ansfer of operational control, without any impediment, 

by a contract, agreement, lease, or other written or verbal arrangement between the 

owner, lessor, or other entity, and any other entity, that restricts any person or 

entity from transferring operational control to the certificate holder. Examples of 

such impediments are lease, mortgage, insurance, management agreements, and 

other agreements which limit the use of the aircraft to a particular party or purpose 

other than the certificate holder and its authorized kinds of operation.

Augmentation System 

(WAAS) 

operational service volumes of ICAO standard navigation aids 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 offairway 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. 

WAAS has been developed to improve the accuracy, integrity, availability, and 

reliability of GPS signals. WAAS utilizes a fixed localized ground 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.
