IMC Instrument Meteorological Conditions IMPATT Impact Avalanche and Transmit Time. This type of Diode diode,when mounted in an appropriate cavity, pro
duces microwave oscillations and amplification. IMTEG ICAO ILS/MLS Transition Group Europe IND Indicator INU Inertial Navigation Unit IAS Indicated Airspeed is the speed indicated by a differ-
ential pressure airspeed indicator which measures the
actual pressure differential in the pitot-static head. It
is the actual instrument indication for a given flight
condition.
Indicated The altitude above mean sea level (uncorrected for
Altitude temperature).

I/O Input/Output. Refers to bi-directional data ports.
INPH Interphone
INS Inertial Navigation System. A self-contained,dead-reckoning system that senses the acceleration along the three axes of the aircraft and calculates the dis-tance traveled from a reference point. Accuracy of the system decreases with respect to time.
INST Instrument
Intruder An altitude reporting aircraft that is being considered as a potential threat and that is being processed by the threat detection logic (TCAS).
