precision approach radar — Primary radar equipment used to determine the position of an aircraft during final approach, in terms of lateral and vertical deviations relative to a nominal approach path, and in range relative to touch down (ICAO). The system is basically a… … Aviation dictionary
precision approach procedure — A standard instrument approach procedure utilizing azimuth and glide path information provided by an ILS (instrument landing system), an MLS (microwave landing system), or a PAR (precision approach radar) … Aviation dictionary
radar approach — An approach, executed by an aircraft, under the direction of a radar controller (ICAO). The procedure utilizes precision approach radar (PAR), airport surveillance radar (ASR), or surveillance radar element (SRE). See precision approach radar … Aviation dictionary
Radar display — Modern radar systems typically use some sort of raster scan display to produce a map like image. In the past, notably during the early days of radar development, such displays were difficult to produce for a number of reasons. Several different… … Wikipedia
radar approach control facility — A terminal ATC (air traffic control) facility that uses radar and nonradar capabilities to provide approach control services to aircraft arriving, departing, or transiting the airspace controlled by the facility. This facility provides radar ATC… … Aviation dictionary
radar monitoring — The use of radar for the purpose of providing aircraft with information and advice relative to significant deviation from nominal flight path (ICAO). The radar controller observes and notes the deviation from the authorized flight path, route, or … Aviation dictionary
Instrument approach — Terminal procedures for an ILS approach in the United States. (The disclaimers shown in red in the illustration do not appear on the original approach plate.) For aircraft operating under instrument flight rules (IFR), an instrument approach or… … Wikipedia
Ground-controlled approach — In aviation a ground controlled approach (GCA), is a type of service provided by air traffic controllers whereby they guide aircraft to a safe landing in adverse weather conditions based on radar images. Most commonly a GCA uses information from… … Wikipedia
ground-controlled approach — The technique or procedure for “talking down” an aircraft during its approach to position it for landing. A radar approach system operated from the ground by air traffic personnel transmits instructions to the pilot by radio. The initial approach … Aviation dictionary
