Fixating. Staring at a single instrument, thereby interrupting the cross-check process. FL. See . ight level. Flight configurations. Adjusting the aircraft control surfaces (including .aps and landing gear) in a manner that will achieve a speci. ed attitude. Flight director indicator (FDI). One of the major components of a flight director system, it provides steering commands that the pilot (or the autopilot, if coupled) follows. Flight level (FL). A measure of altitude (in hundreds of feet) used by aircraft .ying above 18,000 feet with the altimeter set at 29.92" Hg. Flight management system (FMS). Provides pilot and crew with highly accurate and automatic long-range navigation capability, blending available inputs from long- and short-range sensors. Flight path. The line, course, or track along which an aircraft is .ying or is intended to be . own. Flight patterns. Basic maneuvers, .own by reference to the instruments rather than outside visual cues, for the purpose of practicing basic attitude .ying. The patterns simulate maneuvers encountered on instrument .ights such as holding patterns, procedure turns, and approaches. Flight strips. Paper strips containing instrument flight information, used by ATC when processing . ight plans. FMS. See .ight management system. Form drag. The drag created because of the shape of a component or the aircraft. Fundamental skills. Pilot skills of instrument cross-check, instrument interpretation, and aircraft control. Glide slope (GS). Part of the ILS that projects a radio beam upward at an angle of approximately 3° from the approach end of an instrument runway. The glide slope provides vertical guidance to aircraft on the .nal approach course for the aircraft to follow when making an ILS approach along the localizer path. Glide slope intercept altitude. The minimum altitude of an intermediate approach segment prescribed for a precision approach that ensures obstacle clearance. Global landing system (GLS). An instrument approach with lateral and vertical guidance with integrity limits (similar to barometric vertical navigation (BRO VNAV). Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Satellite navigation systems that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. It allows small electronic receivers to determine their location (longitude, latitude, and altitude) to within a few meters using time signals transmitted along a line of sight by radio from satellites. GNSS. See global navigation satellite systems. Global positioning system (GPS). Navigation system that uses satellite rather than ground-based transmitters for location information. Goniometer. As used in radio frequency (RF) antenna systems, a direction-sensing device consisting of two . xed loops of wire oriented 90° from each other, which separately sense received signal strength and send those signals to two rotors (also oriented 90°) in the sealed direction-indicating instrument. The rotors are attached to the direction-indicating needle of the instrument and rotated by a small motor until minimum magnetic .eld is sensed near the rotors. |
