| - | The flight-plan dialogue box is used to view the flight-plan which was filed by the pilot of the target aircraft: | + | The flight-plan dialogue box is used to view the flight-plan which was filed by the pilot of the target aircraft, or which is used for flight-planning purposes by ATC: |
| - | * Callsign - will be automatically completed based on the selected target. | + | * CALLSIGN - The identifier for the target aircraft. |
| - | * Cleared to - will be automatically completed as the destination airport from the flight-plan of the selected target. | + | * FTYPE - The Flight Type: S=Scheduled, N=Non-scheduled, G=General-Aviation, M=Military, X=Other |
| - | * Runway - the drop-down list allows selection of the departure runway. If that departure runway has been specified in the ATIS for the departure airport, then this will be used by default. | + | * FRULE The flight rules that the target is operating under: I=Instrument, V=Visual, Y=IFR-then-VFR, Z=VFR-then-IFR |
| - | * SID - once the runway has been specified, the SID will be calculated based on the flight-plan using data in the FIR DEF. In the event that more than one SID matches the departure airport/runway, it is not specified which will be returned; there is currently no way to make an alternative choice in the current version of IVAC2. //Please note that FIR DEFs may include SIDs which are dependant on multiple conditions, such as aircraft type, time-of-day, and available equipment.// | + | * NR - NumbeR of aircraft. This will be "1" other than in the case of formation flights. |
| - | * Transition - not used in the current version of IVAC2. | + | * ACTYP - The ICAO code for the aircraft type. |
| - | * Squawk - the controller may manually enter the 4-digit transponder squawk code to be assigned to this target. | + | * WTC - The Wake Turbulence Category of the aircraft type, L=Light, M=Medium, H=Heavy. |
| - | * Next Freq - the frequency which the pilot of the target aircraft should contact after receiving their clearance; use the drop-down list of available controllers to make the selection. //Select yourself if you wish the pilot to remain on your frequency.// | + | * EQUIPMENT - A series of letter codes, each representing items of equipment on the aircraft, eg. S=Standard, G=Global-Navigation-System etc. |
| - | * Departure - will be automatically completed as the departure airport from the flight-plan of the selected target. | + | * SSR - The type of transponder on the target aircraft, N=None, C=Mode-C, S=Mode-S etc. |
| - | * ATC RMK - this can be optionally completed with any additional text which you require to be included with the clearance. | + | * ADEP - Departure Airport ICAO code. |
| - | * CLD - this text is gradually built-up as data is input into the dialog; it represents the actual transmission which will be made to the target when clicking the "SEND DCL" button. | + | * ADES - Destination Airport ICAO code. |
| - | + | * TAS - The cruising True Air Speed; a letter prefix indicating: N=kNots, M=Mach, K=Kilometers/hour. | |
| - | The buttons along the bottom of the dialogue are as follows: | + | * RFL - Requested Flight Level, a letter prefix indicates: F=Flight-Level, A=Altitude (hundreds of feet), S=Metric-Level, M=Metric-Altitude (tens-of-metres). |
| - | * VOICE - used if the clearance has been read to the pilot over the voice channel. IVAC2 will assign the various label tags such as SID, CFL but not transmit the clearance using CPDLC. | + | * EOBT - Estimated Off-Blocks Time, the time at which the flight is planned to begin moving away from the parking position. |
| - | * SEND DCL - this will send the text in the CLD box, using CPDLC, to the specified target; the various label tags such as SID, CFL will also be updated according to the clearance. | + | * EET - Estimated Elapsed Time, the calculated/planned duration of the flight. |
| - | * FPL - Open the Flight-Plan dialogue box. | + | * ALTN1 - The first choice of Alternate Airport. |
| - | * CANCEL - closes the dialogue without making any transmission or updating the label tags. | + | * ALTN2 - The second choice of Alternate Airport. |
| + | * ROUTE - The flight-plan route. This will include the way-points, navigational aids, airways and other route elements that are planned; it may also include additional details such as planned changes of level or flight-rules. | ||
| + | * ITEM 18 - This can be a lengthy set of additional fields included in the flightplan containing additional information. Examples include REG/ (aircraft registration, DOF (date of flight), SEL/ (selcal code), OPR/ (operating company), RMK/ (other remarks). | ||
| + | The next group of fields relate to data assigned to the target by ATC: | ||
| + | * NEXT - The next controller which the target should contact after transfer by the current controller. | ||
| + | * CFL - The Cleared Flight Level to which the target should be climbing, descending, or maintaining. | ||
| + | * ASP - The Assigned SPeed which the target should be maintaining. | ||
| + | * CWP - The Cleared Waypoint which the target should be proceeding towards. | ||
| + | * XFL - The eXit Flight Level, the flight-level at which the target is planned to leave the sector. | ||
| + | * XCOP - The eXit Co-Ordination Point, the waypoint at which the target is planned to leave the sector. | ||
| + | * PEL - The Planned Entry Level, the flight-level at which the target is planned to enter the sector | ||
| + | * COPN - The Co-Ordination Point eNtry, the waypoint at which the target is planned to enter the sector. | ||
| + | * ASSR - Assigned Secondary Surveillance Radar code, ie. the squawk code which has been assigned to this target. | ||
| + | * DSTAND - The stand number assigned to the target at the departure airport. | ||
| + | * DRWY - The departure runway assigned to the target. | ||
| + | * SID - The Standard Instrument Departure assigned to the target. | ||
| + | * STAR - The STandard Arrival Route assigned to the target. | ||
| + | * ARWY - The arrival runway assigned to the target. | ||
| + | * ASTAND - The stand number assigned to the target at the arrival airport. | ||
| + | The final group of fields relate to the target's network connection: | ||
| + | * VID - The network identifier of the pilot flying the target aircraft. | ||
| + | * NAME - The real name of the human pilot flying the target aircraft. | ||
| + | * VOICE - Indication of whether the pilot has voice-communication available or is text-only. | ||
| + | * SI - Sector Indicator of the controlling that has currently assumed the target. | ||
