Overview

ASA’s ultimate reference book contains more than 13,000 accurate, aviation-specific definitions and acronyms. Based on Dale Crane’s original compilation, this edition collects all of the terms in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, glossaries from FAA handbooks, advisory circulars, the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) and Pilot/Controller Glossary, as well as definitions not found in government publications. Nearly 500 illustrations further define and aid visual recognition of the terms, and useful tables and lists are included in appendices.

In an industry of acronyms and technical language, this comprehensive dictionary is an essential reference book for anyone involved with aviation and space organizations—administrators, pilots, maintenance technicians, drone operators, colleges and universities, air traffic controllers, manufacturers, engineers, government agencies, airlines, and corporate flight departments—as well as newcomers to the industry, and those who speak English as a second language.

The ASA Dictionary of Aeronautical Terms, now in its eighth edition, is a vital reference tool that belongs on every aviation bookshelf.
