Air Law - AIS

7 important questions on Air Law - AIS

Aeronautical Information Service (AIS)

Ensure the flow of aeronautical data and aeronautical information necessary for global air traffic management (ATM)
- Area navigation (RNAV = RNP)
- Performance-based navigation (PBN)
- Airborne computer-based navigation systems
- Performance-based communication (PBC)
- Performance-based surveillance (PBS)
- Data link systems
- Satellite voice communications (satvoice)

Responsibilities and functions AIS

Where 24-hour service is not provided, service shall be available during the whole period an aircraft is in flight in the area of responsibility of an aeronautical information service plus a period of at least two hours before and after such period

Global Positioning System (GPS)

Uses WGS-84 reference datum
  • Higher grades + faster learning
  • Never study anything twice
  • 100% sure, 100% understanding
Discover Study Smart

Regulated System of AIRAC

Shall be distributed by the AIS unit at least 42 days in advance with the objective to reach recipients at least 28 days in advance and the information therein shall not be changed further for at least another 28 days after the effective date unless the circumstance notified is of a temporary nature.

Aeronautical Information Circulars (AIC)

When necessary to promulgate aeronautical information which does not qualify:
- under the specifications for inclusion in an AIP or
- under the specifications for the origination of a NOTAM

Aeronautical Information Circulars (AIC) Colour codes

White: Administration
Yellow: Operational matters including ATS facilities and requirements
Pink: Safety issues
Mauve: Airspace restrictions
Green: Maps and Charts

Prohibited, Restricted and Danger Areas

1) Identification, name and geographical coordinates
2) Upper and lower limits
3) Remarks including time and activity
P for prohibited area
R for restricted area
D for danger area

The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:

  • A unique study and practice tool
  • Never study anything twice again
  • Get the grades you hope for
  • 100% sure, 100% understanding
Remember faster, study better. Scientifically proven.
