2. Instrument flight rules - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_flight_rules

   Instrument flight rules. In aviation, instrument flight rules (IFR) is one of two sets of regulations governing all aspects of civil aviation aircraft operations; the other is visual flight rules (VFR). The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration 's (FAA) Instrument Flying Handbook defines IFR as: "Rules and regulations established by the FAA to ...

3. CRAFT (aviation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRAFT_(aviation)

   CRAFT stands for: Transponder code, the transponder code that must be set for the aircraft prior to departure and during the flight. T also stands for time, as in void time, if one is issued. A void time is an expiration time, meaning, the IFR clearance is voided if the aircraft is not airborne by the void time. [1]

4. Instrument rating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_rating

   Instrument rating refers to the qualifications that a pilot must have in order to fly under instrument flight rules (IFR). It requires specific training and instruction beyond what is required for a private pilot certificate or commercial pilot certificate, including rules and procedures specific to instrument flying, additional instruction in meteorology, and more intensive training in flight ...

6. Turn and slip indicator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_and_slip_indicator

   In aviation, the turn and slip indicator (T/S, a.k.a. turn and bank indicator) and the turn coordinator (TC) variant are essentially two aircraft flight instruments in one device. One indicates the rate of turn, or the rate of change in the aircraft's heading; the other part indicates whether the aircraft is in coordinated flight, showing the ...

7. Air navigation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_navigation

   The techniques used for navigation in the air will depend on whether the aircraft is flying under visual flight rules (VFR) or instrument flight rules (IFR). In the latter case, the pilot will navigate exclusively using instruments and radio navigation aids such as beacons, or as directed under radar control by air traffic control.
