CATEGORY II. A precision approach, which provides for approaches with a decision height of not less than 100 feet and visibility not less that 1200 feet RVR. CATEGORY III. A precision approach, which provides for approaches with minima less than Category II. PRECISION APPROACH PATH INDICATOR (PAPI). A lighting system providing visual approach slope guidance to aircraft during a landing approach. It is similar to a Visual Approach Slope Indicator (VASI) but provides a sharper transition between the colored indicator lights. PRECISION OBJECT FREE ZONE (POFZ). An area centered on the extended runway centerline, beginning at the runway threshold and extending behind the runway threshold that is 200 feet long by 800 feet wide. The POFZ is a clearing standard, which requires the POFZ to be kept clear of above ground objects protruding above the runway safety area edge elevation (except for NAVAIDs). The POFZ applies to all new authorized instrument approach procedures with less than . mile visibility. PROHIBITED AREA. See special-use airspace. REMOTE TRANSMITTER / RECEIVER (RTR). See remote communications outlet. RTRs serve ARTCCs. RELIEVER AIRPORT. An airport to serve general aviation aircraft, which might otherwise use a congested air-carrier served airport. RESTRICTED AREA. See special-use airspace. RNAV. Area Navigation – airborne equipment, which permits flights over determined tracks within prescribed accuracy tolerances without the need to overfly ground-based navigation facilities. Used enroute and for approaches to an airport. RUNWAY. A defined rectangular area on an airport prepared for an aircraft landing and taking off. Runways are normally numbered in relation to their magnetic direction, rounded off to the nearest 10 degrees. The runway heading on the opposite end of the runway is 180 degrees from that runway end. Aircraft can takeoff or land from either end of a runway, depending upon wind direction. RUNWAY BLAST PAD. A surface adjacent to the ends of runways provided to reduce the erosive effect of jet blast and propeller wash. |
