An approach conducted on an instrument flight rules (IFR) flight plan which authorizes the pilot to proceed visually and clear of clouds to the airport. The pilot must, at all times, have either the airport or the preceding aircraft in sight. This approach must be authorized and under the control of the appropriate air traffic control facility, and the reported weather at the airport must be: ceiling at or above 1,000 feet and visibility of three miles or greater.
Industry:Aviation
An approach conducted while operating on an instrument rules (IFR) flight plan which authorizes the pilot of an aircraft to proceed visually and clear of clouds to the airport via visual landmarks and other information depicted on a charted visual flight procedure.
This approach must be authorized and under the control of the appropriate air traffic control facility. The weather minimums required are depicted on the approach chart.
Industry:Aviation
An approach in which an aircraft on an IFR flight plan, having an air traffic control authorization, operating clear of clouds with at least one mile flight visibility and a reasonable expectation of continuing to the destination airport in those conditions, may deviate from the instrument approach procedure and proceed to the destination airport by visual reference to the surface.
Industry:Aviation
An approach normally conducted by a single-engine military aircraft experiencing loss or anticipated loss of engine power or control. The standard overhead approach starts at a relatively high altitude over a runway (high key) followed by a continuous 180° turn to a high, wide position (low key), followed by a continuous 180° turn to final. The standard straight-in pattern starts at a point that results in a straight-in approach with a high rate of descent to the runway.
Flameout approaches terminate in the type of approach requested by the pilot (normally full stop).
Industry:Aviation
An approach over an airport or runway following an instrument approach or a VFR approach, including the go-around maneuver in which the pilot intentionally does not make contact with the runway.
Industry:Aviation
An approach requested and conducted by a pilot which will result in either a touch-and-go, missed approach, low approach, stop-and-go, or a full-stop landing.
Industry:Aviation
An approval issued by the FAA for a modification to a type-certificated airframe, engine, or component. More than one STC can be issued for the same basic alteration, but each holder must prove to the FAA that his alteration meets all of the requirements of the original type certificate.
Industry:Aviation
An approval issued by the FAA for the manufacture of a component for installation on a certificated aircraft.
Industry:Aviation
An approval, granted by the FAA under 14 CFR Part 21, that allows a person to produce a modification or replacement part for sale for installation on a type-certificated product.
Industry:Aviation
An approved plan to minimize the effect of severe weather on traffic flows in impacted terminal and/or ARTCC areas. SWAP is normally implemented to provide the least disruption to the air traffic control system when flight through portions of airspace is difficult or impossible due to severe weather.
