Industry:Aviation
The observation of the progress of radar-identified aircraft, the primary navigation of which is being provided by the pilot, wherein the controller retains and correlates the aircraft identity with the appropriate target or target symbol displayed on the radar scope.
Industry:Aviation
A controlled airspace of defined dimensions within which a functioning transponder incorporating an automatic pressure-altitude reporting device is required.
Industry:Aviation
The use of radar for the purpose of providing aircraft with information and advice relating to significant deviations from the nominal flight path.
Industry:Aviation
A controlled airspace within which radar control service is provided.
Industry:Aviation
The military personnel responsible for monitoring the progress of and providing safety to faker aircraft in accordance with safe-intercept criteria, beginning at the initial point or H-hour control line (IP/HHCL) and terminating at the bomb release line or end exercise point (BRL/EEP), or at the point of final neutralization.

As geographically delineated in the Designated Airspace Handbook (DAH), controlled airspace within the Canadian Domestic Airspace (CDA) designated for area navigation (RNAV) operations. Only aircraft certified as meeting the required navigation performance capability (RNPC) are permitted to operate on published, high level fixed RNAV routes or receive improved ATC separation minimums based on RNPC. Certification is dependent upon crew training and navigation equipment that permits position determination within ± 4 NM.
Note: Aircraft certified for Canadian minimum navigation performance specifications (CMNPS) and North Atlantic minimum navigation performance specifications (NAT MNPS) operations are deemed to be RNPC certified.
Industry:Aviation
The display of a target after processing by a radar data processing system.
Industry:Aviation
Certain portions of domestic airspace that will be structured for one-way traffic during times of peak traffic. Flight levels (FL) that are inappropriate for the direction of flight may be assigned to this traffic.
Industry:Aviation
A system that provides an automatic and selective method of calling any aircraft. Voice calling is replaced by the transmission of code tones to the aircraft over the international radiotelephony channels. This system is installed on all international frequencies at Canadian stations.
