ATC stands for?

• A. Automatic Train Control
• B. Air Traffic Control
• C. Aircraft Turn Coordination
• D. Air Transport Certification

Answer: (B)

ATC stands for Air Traffic Control, the network of people and procedures that manages aircraft as they move through airspace and on the ground. Its main job is to keep airplanes safe by ensuring proper separation, issuing clearances, and coordinating with pilots and other ground facilities. Controllers work in towers, approach/departure facilities, and en route centers, communicating with pilots by radio and using radar and other surveillance to manage traffic from takeoff through landing and beyond. Automatic Train Control is a rail system term, not aviation, and the other phrases—while they might sound plausible—refer to different concepts.
