ATIS provides continuous broadcast of information concerning:

• A. Noncontrol information in selected high-activity terminal areas.
• B. Real-time traffic statuses
• C. Pilot license validity
• D. Airport security statuses

Answer: (A)

ATIS stands for Automatic Terminal Information Service. It is a continuous broadcast of information that is useful to pilots but does not require ATC instruction. In busy terminal areas, this service relays current weather observations (wind, visibility, sky condition, altimeter), the active runway in use, available instrument approaches, and other pertinent notices such as NOTAMs or changes that affect arrival, takeoff, or approach procedures. This non-control information helps pilots plan and operate safely without tying up air traffic controllers. Real-time traffic statuses, pilot license validity, and airport security statuses are not part of ATIS. Those items are handled through separate channels and regulatory processes, not the routine, repetitive weather and procedure information provided by ATIS.
