Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel and to another video which is all about the cryptic world of aviation abbreviations.
Let’s get started
ADF - The Automatic Direction Finder, a radio navigation device. Which works great with an NDB
ADIRS - The Air Data Inertial Reference System, processes and provides for example data concerning speed, angle of attack and altitude as well as inertial references like position and attitude.
AFS - The Auto Flight System, the core system when it comes to autonomous flying. It includes for example the subsystem everyone knows as the autopilot.
AH or AI - The Artificial Horizon or Attitude Indicator
ALT - Stands for Altimeter and it displays the Altitude. They share this abbreviation.
A/THR - The Auto Throttle. Once activated, it adjusts the thrust or throttles autonomously.
B/A - Is the Bank Angle around the longitudinal axis.
CDI - The Course Deviation Indicator. It is used to determine your lateral position relative to a course to or from a VOR for example.
CDU - The Control and Display Unit. The pilot’s interface for making inputs into the aircraft computers.
CKPT - short for Cockpit
DG - The Directional Gyro or better known as the heading indicator.
ECAM - That is Airbus’ Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring. The two center displays.
EFIS - The generic term for the Electronic Flight Instruments System which make up the modern glass cockpits.
EGT - The Exhaust Gas Temperature
EICAS - The Engine Indication and Crew Alerting System, which information is displayed on the center screens of a Boeing, comparable to the ECAM on Airbus models.
ENG - short for Engine
FD - Stands for Flight Director the little graphical aid in front of the artificial horizon.
FMC - The Flight Management Computer is a system based on a data base that allows the programming of routes and is part of the…
FMS - The Flight Management System, which contains many subsystems like the FMC and other navigation systems. It displays its data via the EFIS.
GPS - Is of course short for the famous Global Positioning System
GPWS - The Ground Proximity Warning System.
GS - Is your Ground Speed
HDG - Is short for Heading.
HUD - The Head-Up-Display which can be found in a Boeing 787 Dreamliner for example.
IAS - Is your Indicated Airspeed which you can always find on the left side of your basic T.
LNAV - Stands for Lateral Navigation.
MCDU - The Multi-Purpose Control and Display Unit, which again is an interface unit to make inputs into the FMS. It consists of an LCD Screen and a Keyboard.
N1 - The Low-Pressure Spool Speed
N2 - The High-Pressure Spool Speed
NAV - Short for Navigation
ND - The Navigation Display.
OBS - The Omni Bearing Selector, which is the turning knob to set the course line on the CDI.
PFD - The Primary Flight Display.
QNH - Represent the altimeter setting in which the pressure reference is set according to MSL, the mean sea level.
RMI - The Radio Magnetic Indicator is a radio compass used for navigation towards NDBs. It is included in the ADF.
SPD - Is short for Speed.
STD - Stands for Standard, another altimeter setting, which is used above specific transition altitudes where altitudes become flight levels.
TAS - Is your True Airspeed.
THR - Thrust and Throttle both share this abbreviation.
TOGA - The Take Off / Go Around button is mounted onto the thrust levers and automatically applies take off thrust or full power when pressed prior to take off or to perform a go around.
VHF - Is short for Very High Frequency. The spectrum of short-range radio frequencies.
VNAV - Stands for Vertical Navigation.
V/S - Is your Vertical Speed, also called climb or descent rate followed by
VSI - The Vertical Speed Indicator
WXR - The Weather Radar which graphical information is mostly displayed on the ND.

Hello, the Pic illustrating the VHF is in reality a VOR antenna, and not a typical VHF communication antenna
Thank you Joe, this came handy for all of us, and I even shot screen shots of every item you mentioned, and filled in my Flight Dictionary record!
sir what is difference between PFD and EADI
Most of his subscribers are on the no-fly list🤣
QNH = Query Nil Height in case anyone was wondering
Iloveyou capt ❤️
Brilliant explanation!!
( THIS VIDEO REMIND ME ABOUT LAST TIME TRAVEL OVERSEA..) WHO WANT TO BE A PILOT IN THE FUTURE? GIMME LIKE / COMMENT...
At 1:18 you're showing a wrong instrument. In the Cessna cockpit that is a vor without glide slope indication, not an ADF.
Guys the HUD in the 787 is hilarious it is not a Fighter jet haha
No money
And the funny one will be the whisky delta ( only males should search this up ) 😂😂
QNH ( question nil height )
Could not I say, the CDU and the FMC is the same?
You memorized these
Whats the difference between MCDU and FMC ?
TCAS appears on screen Me: ohh, I know that one
What are the spinning wheels near the THR
Sir please make video on Aircraft maintenance engenering
5:14 Q code en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_code refefece: for fet_enthusiasts (“Field Elevation”) - is a pressure setting you dial into your altimeter to produce the height above the runway. It reads zero when you are on the runway and gives your height above it when you are airborne. This appears to be consistent between ICAO and U.S. FAA reference material.

Guys i think i am ready to fly a plane
Please do more video similar to this
My dream is to be an pilot
And which subject do we need to be a pilot and what gread we have to print explain
The basic requirements are that you have graduated from high school, and have maths, physics and English.
I want to be an pilot so thankyou I subscribed and I writed noted about that you told in this video I will be always supporting you when I be a pilot in fuicher
Just 14 and feeling so inspired 🥺 by cj and Dutch pilot girl 😍♥️you both make me feel so motivated 🥺♥️ gonna be a pilot girl ♥️😍
Yes I know all
Captain Joe made me be in love with planes 1.6 years ago! Thank you
Well I've got some more abbreviations: 1]CFI- Certified Flight Instructor 2]DME- Distance Measuring Equipment 3]OAT-Outside Air Temperature 4]CAS- Calibrated Airspeed 5]ATA-Actual Time of Arrival Thanks
Captain, you forgot the PFLI. (Passengers fright level indicator).
I love aviation and my wish is to become a pilot stay healthy and save cap. And ilove all of your video.
Hey Captain, is there a bird strike alert system in the cockpit?
I’m 10 and I never imagined this much buttons in a cockpit and I wanna be pilot
captain joe could you do one on the fuel metering system? and pls include cx780
man that was funny when i say STI -Seriously Technical Information
Caption can be Hindi language.
I did not understand anything
For amazing videos related to Aviation kgup.info/must/NexiD82Np-yeWMWHj2IeiQ.html
Captain Joe is teaching me how to play FS2020
Caption joe video almost like online class.I learn so much by seeing your video
Thank you for providing descriptions in the video description! Awesome!
I just came up with these funny callsign for the Dreamliner Cargo plane/ BigDaddy-(Callsign numbers)/ Omega-(Callsign Numbers)
you are a great pilot man... thnks
Hi captain ur really making this quertine days worthy !!!!excited alws for ur videos been watched thkz alot fr sharing with us
Can I become pilots if I am wearing Choclear impalnt
Explain the Overhead Panel please.
How did I not see this video but I've seen every other one •___•
ADF: Australian Defence Force. If these guys are around, something's probably up.
N1/N2: Depending on the aircraft you may find NL and NH.
Captian joe .. okay its your frist misson to be a captain .. me .. okay
SPF... What occurs when encountering clear air turbulence. (Sphincter Pucker Factor). 😉
ETOPS = Engines Turn or Passengers Swim
What is the use of HUD ?
The HUD increases the pilot's situational awareness because the pilot can see important flight data in front of his/her eyes without looking down to instrument panel. Here is a good image presenting the flight data displayed on the HUD: static.wixstatic.com/media/492620_036eecb735c54c00932123b54f3294ca.jpg
Please make a pilot comfort comparison between Airbus and Boeing.
Henrik Sjölund Boeing is more compact and cramped, airbus is more open and comfortable (atleast in the 737 vs A320)
