Definition:
Complacency and lack of attention are the enemies of MAC avoidance strategies. To keep crews focused, airlines mandate a “sterile cockpit” at altitudes below 10,000 feet AGL; that is, all conversation not pertaining to operation of the aircraft is forbidden during these times.
Wake Turbulence
Definition:
Wake turbulence is a concern whenever small aircraft share an airport with larger ones. The powerful vortices that spiral off the wing tips of heavier aircraft—turboprops and business jets, as well as airliners— can suddenly and unexpectedly toss a small airplane out of control.
SIGMET
Definition:
An in-flight weather advisory that is considered significant to all aircraft. SIGMET criteria include severe icing, severe and extreme turbulence, duststorms, sandstorms, volcanic eruptions, and volcanic ash that lower visibility to less than 3 miles.
