Explanation of Changes
Terms Added
AIRBORNE. An aircraft is considered airborne when all parts of the aircraft are off the ground.
BLAST PAD. A surface adjacent to the ends of a runway provided to reduce the erosive effect of jet blast and propeller wash.
FLIGHT INFORMATION SERVICE-BROADCAST (FIS-B). A ground broadcast service provided through the ADS-B Broadcast Services network over the UAT data link that operates on 978 MHz. The FIS-B system provides pilots and .ight crews of prop-erly equipped aircraft with a cockpit display of certain aviation weather and aeronautical information.
PREDICTIVE WIND SHEAR ALERT SYSTEM (PWS). A self-con-tained system used onboard some aircraft to alert the .ight crew to the presence of a potential wind shear. PWS systems typically monitor 3 miles ahead and 25 degrees left and right of the air-craft’s heading at or below 1,200 feet AGL. Departing .ights may receive a wind shear alert after they start the takeoff roll and may elect to abort the takeoff. Aircraft on approach receiving an alert may elect to go around or perform a wind shear escape maneuver.
PWS. (See PREDICTIVE WIND SHEAR ALERT SYSTEM.)
SECNOT. (See SECURITY NOTICE.)
SECURITY NOTICE (SECNOT). A SECNOT is a request origi-nated by the Air Traf.c Security Coordinator (ATSC) for an exten-sive communications search for aircraft involved, or suspected of being involved, in a security violation. A SECNOT will include the aircraft identi.cation, search area, and expiration time. The search area, as de.ned by the ATSC, could be a single airport, multiple airports, a radius of an airport or .x, or a route of .ight. Once the expiration time has been reached, the SECNOT is considered to be cancelled.
TIS-B. (See TRAFFIC INFORMATION SERVICE-BROADCAST.)
TOI. (See TRACK OF INTEREST.)
TRACK OF INTEREST (TOI). Displayed data representing an air-borne object that threatens or has the potential to threaten North America or National Security. Indicators may include, but are not limited to: noncompliance with air traf.c control instructions or avi-ation regulations; extended loss of communications; unusual transmissions or unusual .ight behavior; unauthorized intrusion into controlled airspace or an ADIZ; noncompliance with issued .ight restrictions/security procedures; or unlawful interference with airborne .ight crews, up to and including hijack. In certain cir-cumstances, an object may become a TOI based on speci.c and credible intelligence pertaining to that particular aircraft/object, its passengers, or its cargo.
TRACK OF INTEREST RESOLUTION. A TOI will normally be considered resolved when: the aircraft/object is no longer air-borne; the aircraft complies with air traf.c control instructions, avi-ation regulations, and/or issued .ight restrictions/security proce-dures; radio contact is re-established and authorized control of the aircraft is veri.ed; the aircraft is intercepted and intent is veri-.ed to be nonthreatening/nonhostile; TOI was identi.ed based on speci.c and credible intelligence that was later determined to be invalid or unreliable; or displayed data is identi.ed and character-ized as invalid.
