ATC stands for which function?

• A. Air Traffic Control
• B. Attendant Time Coordination
• C. Automatic Terminal Control
• D. Aircraft Telemetry Center

Answer: (A)

ATC stands for Air Traffic Control, the function that manages aircraft movement in the air and on the ground to keep planes safely separated. Controllers provide pilots with clearances, instructions, and information to sequence arrivals and departures, coordinate routes, and monitor weather and traffic so flights flow smoothly. The other options aren’t recognized terms for this role in aviation, so they don’t describe the function that ATC represents.
